Osprey Island
a nesting area for the hawk like bird with a black eyestripe and white head, and a wingspan that can reach 6 feet.

John Wesley Powell, 1869 started a three month expedition down the Green and Colorado Rivers.
Three days from Green River Wyoming, they were thrilled to see the sun’s reflection of the brilliant red gorge.
This picture is taken from the Red Canyon Visitor Center.

Plenty of fun had by all.
