Kabell Lake
The weekend of 23 Jun 07, Tracy and I backpacked up to Kabell Lake in the High Uintas Wilderness. The trail was only about 5 miles up to the lake with only 1500 feet or so of elevation gain, so it wasn’t too bad. We didn’t see…

Amethyst Basin
The weekend of 9 Jun 07, Tracy and I finally headed out for our first mountain trip of the year. Even though it had actually snowed in the Wasatch a few days earlier, I was sick and tired of winter, and I was bound and determined to…
Tennessee
The week of May 7, 2007, I took my annual trip to Tennessee. I played my dream 24-hour paintball game, and it was great. And then I spent the weekend hiking and visiting friends and family. I hiked in the Bald River Wilderness, as well as on…
Hurricane Wash
The weekend of 27 Apr 07, Tracy and I backpacked Hurricane Wash in Escalante National Monument. This was a really cool hike. The first couple of miles of the hike started in open desert, and we had to take it really slow in the heat. We didn’t…
Crack Canyon
Crack Canyon is a great non-technical canyon in the San Rafael Swell just outside of Goblin Valley State Park. The weekend of 9 Mar 07, Tracy and I did some hiking here, and it was a great hike. The canyon had some spots that bordered on being…
Slough Creek
Over the long President’s Day weekend of February 17, 2007, Tracy and I decided to head back to Yellowstone to try our luck at seeing the wolves again. Since Yellowstone only has one entrance open in the winter, it’s a long seven hour drive from Salt Lake…
Causey Reservoir
Causey Reservoir is a great little lake just east of Huntsville, UT, and on 3 Feb 07, Tracy and I took a day-hike out there. I’ve been reading news stories about mountain lions out there, so, of course, I had faint hopes. We didn’t see any signs…

Death Valley National Park
Over the long New Year’s weekend of 2006/2007, Tracy and I decided to take another long road trip. This time Tracy was focused on getting one of her four remaining states off her list, so we had to go to California. Since the weather in Utah was…
Lake Powell
Over the long Thanksgiving weekend in November 2006, Tracy and I took a kayaking trip to Lake Powell. This was an incredible trip. Even though it was the end of November, the day-time highs were in the mid-60s. We rented two sea kayaks from REI in Salt…
