Mile Waterfall
In
the winter of 2000, we purchased a custom-built twin engine Alicraft
Jet Boat. Depending upon water levels, we now run up river into the
lower reaches of the Grand Canyon. Except when the river is in flood,
we usually can get to the waterfall. As the water level comes down,
we start running farther up into the canyon. Last season we ran to just
above the confluence of the Stikine and Tahltan Rivers numerous times.
1/2
