Looking downstream from Lees Ferry, Arizona, on Sept. 24. The location is the only place for hundreds of miles with direct access to the Colorado River. John Doyle Lee used a ferry to shuttle settlers across the river in the mid-1900s. The site is now used as a launching spot for rafters who plan to voyage through the Grand Canyon.
