Katie was able to use the ONLY phone in the Grand Canyon to call and check in on June 5th. Update from my Dad who got the call:
"They are having a lot of fun, everything going very well; they have run outof ice. Beer still in large supply. She sounds very energized and happy.
They are spending the night at Phantom Ranch on the Colorado River. You can see it if you download Google Earth and click the one that says "Phantom Ranch Colorado River" then click "mile 87.5". I suspect there are several other views but this one works.
There were a lot of people waiting for the phone and she sends love to all. Next point of contact will not be before the 15th--I think that is correct as the phone was sort of fuzzy."
Warm beer is better than no beer... ;-)

(This is not actually Katie and Brad, but these are rafters on the Grand Canyon...
so they could look just like this. This is called the
"Lava Fields Rapid" -
you can ask Katie about it when she gets back)
