| The canyon under Sipapu.
It is subject to regular flash floods. We were in no
danger this day. Flash floods can catch you
unawares when it rains many miles away and the runoff is funneled into
these narrow canyons. You may not even be aware that a storm is
happening, and suddenly a wall of water comes at you around a bend in
the canyon. With the steep or vertical canyon walls blocking your
escape you may have nowhere to escape! |
