A great read for Canyon enthusiasts
I have been through the Canyon three times in the last 5 years and had heard about this "cheap vacation that got a little out of hand." The actual story is even more interesting than I expected; the trip was even more difficult than I had heard. There is a lot of detail which will especially appeal to those who have been down the Canyon and know some of the rapids. The story is very well written and will appeal to anyone who enjoys white water, and especially to those who love the Canyon. There is an epilogue, including an account of Beer swimming Lava Falls twice on a later trip! Unfortunately, the film they made does not seem to be generally available.
