Diamond Peak as we near Diamond Creek - Grand Canyon

            This is Diamond Peak - just east of our take out at Diamond Creek.  The summit of Diamond Peak is equivalent to the elevation at Lee's Ferry where this trip started 15 days ago.  The River drops this far in 225 miles.  Diamond Creek is the first place that vehicles can access the Colorado River since Lee's Ferry. 

I rafted the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon with Arizona Raft Adventures AZRA.

{edited} Diamond Peak is about 3,500'.  Lee's Ferry is about 3,100'.  Diamond Creek is about 1,300'.  A drop of 1,800' {end edit}
