Off at 10:30. Hawks in nest, guarded by adults. Whitish underneath, stopped to photo.

Canyons all day.
Ran Escape Rapids as follows.

- Ferried from west to east.
- Scouted again; changed plans
- Ferried back to west between Class 5 monster - below one on west slope, above one on east.

All but Chuck went swimming and then sunbathed - 15 m from Arctic O.

Afterwards, I went for a 3 mile round trip on barren ground east of river.
The map below represents my best guess of where they were at this point.
