@mihir/saloni :  Im going to book this for you .. since we will be doing this in the morning around 10-1pm and given that your flight is at 9.50 from salt lake that should give you plenty of time to go home shower and get to the airport ( need to be at the airport at 7.30, so need to leave zion/cabin at 3.00 ) 

@all please bring SHORTS !! .... Nice flowery ones will do ( I know I will be wearing bright red shorts with lots of flowers on them :D ) ..

ok just called the gear rental company ... 

she said the river is perfect right now ... at the current level of the river she said the hike would be in the easy-medium range. 

she said we need to wear full length gym pants ( like the nylon ones ) over which they will give us the dry pants to put on. 

they will also give us a walking stick + footwear.

I cant reserve the package before hand because she is not taking reservations for the footwear. She says we must come in early on monday to reserve the gear ... so when we go leave PoojaT we can make the reservations for the gear

Since they will give the water suit/pants ...I guess we don't need to but anything specifically... Some thin track types will do. ... Rafting ke time bhi dete hai if water is cold ,.. 

Bandook correct me if am wrong ... Hehehe

On second thought I may skip this and go for photography.

I just got one more lens for this trip, so will not take chances of ruining new lens :D

@bandook, this new lens is perfect for portrait, I guess you dont want to miss that too.

Deepak.....Miss the Narrows? When I went there my friends for some reason didn't want to do the whole thing...I got to do just 3.5 miles. Don't miss this for anything....rent a water-proof case or something!

[Chandrapal Singh]

I was just kidding. I will get a drybag.

[ajit gopalakrishnan]

I am counting on you to take some dynamite pictures. A lot of the view in Bryce depend on the interplay between light and shadow. You can get some wonderful pictures near sunset and at sunrise

Yes .. no one is missing the Narrows !! 

Not at this water level ( read easy ) 

If you dont have gym pants .. you can wear fleece pants , track pants etc 

This is what to expect :

The rest I am still not sure :-)

Nylon pants :D
