Monument Creek, Granite Rapids, and Hermit Creek.

 

Hermit Creek is 8 miles down the Hermit Trail.  90 years ago the Fred Harvey company led mule tours down to Hermit Camp, a tourist camp similar to Phantom Ranch.  It lasted from 1912 until 1930.  Monument Creek, 4 miles east of Hermit Camp, follows a drainage to the river to Granite Rapids.

 Can you see our tent hiding in the tamarisk trees?

Somewhere there is a kayak in those big waves.
