ALL THE GRAND
7 days, 6 nights on the river, 280 miles by powered pontoon boat, Lees Ferry to Lake Mead
all

This trip takes you through the entire Grand Canyon and all of its thrilling rapids. Each mile reveals new sights, side canyons, and rock formations. It’s the most convenient, most relaxing trip because there’s no need to hike into or out of the canyon at the beginning or end. Just come to Flagstaff, that’s all you need to do: we’ll take you to the river, down the river, and back to Flagstaff after the trip.

SPRING IN THE GRAND CANYON

April 19 (Sunday)

$2195

April 25 (Saturday)

DEPOSIT REQUIRED — $500 per person



Mid to late April is an ideal time in the Grand Canyon. Temperatures at the bottom of the Grand Canyon near Phantom Ranch on April 15th average between a low of 54 degrees (F) to a high of 82 degrees (F.) By April 30th the average low is 58 degrees with a high of 87 degrees. This is the best time of the year to catch the beautiful wildflowers in bloom, & because temperatures are more moderate than in the summer time, it’s also a wonderful time to do extended day hikes. Precipitation in Grand Canyon from mid April to the end of the month averages only .02 inches.
So why do we discount April trips? Well, it’s a little early for families planning vacations with the kids, so the later trips book sooner. We want to offer an incentive for those Canyoneers who are able to take advantage of spring in the Grand Canyon! The National Park Service only allows us two departure dates in April, so we urge you to make your reservations early while space is still available.

CANYONEERS BRINGS BACK ITS YESTERYEAR!S
In June & August come with us as we row the Grand Canyon with one of the original Nevills Expeditions cataract boats—the Sandra. Built in 1947, this was the last of the big water cataract boats to be built by Norm Nevills. She was christened by 6 year old Sandra Nevills, Norm & Doris’s second daughter, & launched at Lees Ferry, Arizona on July 12, 1947 for the Grand Canyon leg of the 1,200 mile Wyoming to Lake Mead Nevills Expedition.

The Sandra was used by Nevills Expeditions in Grand Canyon during 1947, ‘48 & ‘49, & then under Mexican Hat Expeditions (the forerunner of Canyoneers, Inc.) during the period between 1950 & 1969. From 1950 to 1957 she was the flagship boat of Frank Wright, Norm’s lead boatman.

GThe Sandra made her last trip as part of Canyoneers 1969 Powell Centennial Expedition from Green River Wyoming to Diamond Creek Arizona and was then retired.

In the year 2000, Norm’s grandson, Greg Reiff, began having the Sandra fully restored and, in 2004, rowed her through Grand Canyon. She is currently the only fully restored, river worthy, cataract boat originally built & run by Norm Nevills.

The Sandra, along with our 18 foot inflatable row boats, will be on the June & August 2009 Canyoneers rowing trips. In June, Greg Reiff will be rowing the Sandra. In August, Andy Hutchinson, the master craftsman who led the restoration, will be at her oars.
Come and experience some Grand Canyon living history! Take yourself back over half a century to the days of the river running pioneers in Grand Canyon.

Our June & August rowed trips are accompanied by a motor-powered pontoon boat that enables us to carry drinking water fresh from Flagstaff, more ice & fresh food, and more equipment for your comfort and enjoyment.

Minimum age for this trip is 12 years old.
