A few years ago, I came across an archived story from Grand Canyon National Park. You can see the original author's writing here:
Long story short, me and a climbing buddy retraced the Kolb brother's steps and found the remnants of the boom they built to lower themselves down to the waterfall. I'm currently working with the NPS to document and preserve these pieces.
