    When I was a boy we went to Flaming Gorge quite a bit. We saw antelope, prairie dogs, saw other wild life.. We fished and caught some big trout. We launched model rockets and shot at targets with our 22's. Its where our family built some great memories.

    Thank you Russ, these are places I would never be able to visit. When you stop to read a story board or go into a visitor's center or a small museum, it is silly but I sometimes feel as though I'm there also. I appreciate the time and effort you put in to your videos.

    FYI, John Wesley Powell started his historic trip through the Grand Canyon just north of there at Green River, Wyoming, on May 24, 1869... shortly before Russ graduated from elementary school! 🤣. So, I guess that means that the Green River joins with the Colorado downstream, and it happens near a little town called Moab. You've heard of that town, haven't you?

    Judging by the striations in that rock 20:00 it appears that's an I deal spot for that dam. The upward tilt pretty much keys that thing to the canyon walls. Betcha it's one of the strongest dams in the world!
