Canyonlands Needles
On February 16, 2014, we met some friends in Moab and went hiking into the Needles District of Canyonlands. We started from Elephant Hill and hiked into Chesler Park. This hike was really pretty and Chesler Park was beautiful. The Needles is a really nice part of…
Ding Canyon
The weekend of February 8, 2014, we explored around southern Utah. We spent the night in Green River before heading into the desert. We first went to Ding Canyon in the San Rafael Swell. This was a nice hike in a slot canyon, with a few non-technical…
Yellowstone
The weekend of January 18, 2014, we headed back to Yellowstone to see the Lamar Valley one last time before we moved back east and to snowmobile on the Beartooth Highway. We saw moose, elk, bald eagles, bison, wolves, and bighorn sheep in and around Yellowstone…winter in…
Lake Powell
On November 11, 2013, Tracy and I decided to do something different at Lake Powell: rent a power boat. We had kayaked on the lake several times, but we decided to rent a boat so we could see more of the lake. We were trying to move…
High Spur Canyon
High Spur is an absolutely beautiful canyon that is outrageously remote and requires a high clearance vehicle to access in the best of conditions. This canyon had been on my list for awhile, but it’s a technical canyon and I wasn’t comfortable doing a remote technical canyon. …
Colorado
On October 18, 2013, we took a road trip around the southern Rockies. We wanted to see Taos, NM, so we drove straight there. Once we got there, though, we were unimpressed, so we headed back into Colorado and explored around Pagosa Springs. We drove a lot…
Pelican Valley
The weekend of September 20, 2013, Tracy and I hiked at Pelican Valley in Yellowstone. I’ve wanted to hike this trail for years, but it’s closed most of the year as a bear management area. So I scheduled this hike at a time when the trail would…
Causey Reservoir
On 9 Sep 13, I took a hike at Causey Reservoir after work to enjoy the fall weather and to look for the salmon. I had the hike to myself, which was great. When I reached the inlet stream where I had the salmon before, I didn’t…
Gunsight Pass
The weekend of August 30, 2013, Tracy and I went exploring in the northern Winds and spent a day hiking at Gunsight Pass. We had intended to spend the long Labor Day weekend hiking to Temple Lake from the Big Sandy Trailhead in the southern Winds. That…
