To everyone who has done Tevis: Can you remember how long,
approximately, it took you to get from Swinging Bridge at the bottom
of the canyon up to Devil's Thumb water stop? I will be on foot with
some equipment.
Or, if anyone knows how to reach the photographer Lynne Glazer by
phone, I can ask her since she's done the hike down and up last
summer. I would like to film at the bridge but need to figure out if
it's feasible. Thanks!

Forever, as I recall!

On foot with gear including backups and waders, an hour down and an
hour and a half back up.

Don't forget the bug juice for the climb back up. If you stop to rest
the skeeters will feast!

Thanks, Lynne! That's what I figured... Will have to play it by ear
and see if it's feasible.
Good luck to all Tevis riders! If you see a camera, just ignore it...
Please don't wave or say "Hi mom..." ;)
