The first trek down to the falls found us at the bottom with a brand new, suddenly non-functioning, Nikon D80. Gasp! (stay calm, cool heads will prevail) We took our time, enjoyed the beauty and wonder of the vista and then meandered our way back to the top (much faster coming down than going back up!) A call into Nikon Tech Support left us stunned when after numerous and varied attempts to reset the camera the voice on the other end of the phone pronounced, "I'm sorry but this camera is apparently defective and has to be returned for service." Are you kidding me?! (stay calm) We were convinced that there had to be a solution. To make a long story short, we located the nearest Best Buy (from where we bought the camera just 5 days earlier) and away we went back to Seattle to exchange it. By 9PM we were happily back at the lodge with a functioning camera as the six of us were seated for dinner.
