Video and photos of Grand Canyon flooding


News accounts this morning include photos taken by hikers and campers who were in the flash flood Sunday morning in the Grand Canyon. They are all copyrighted, so I can't post them here, but click on these sites to see Havasu Falls in flood. [right, Havasu Falls earlier this year. Credit, Brian Gootee, AZGS]
