I am glad you guys like the photos, I really enjoy the outings and photography.
Pretty hot on Friday, and my friend had his brother and nephew in town and wanted to do this slot canyon that we have done before. I really enjoy canyoneering and this is a fun one with some pools that you might wade through or swim through depending on how much water there is. One pool in the shade was pretty cold, so we were happy to get out into the sun after that. There is a 100 ft rappel to finish up and we used my new rope.
Nice hike to get to the head of the slot and then we stayed in the slot until the end
Peter

When you visit, we can do that if you want smile

It is the hot season in Moab now, with highs in the low 100's
You want to get out early or do a hike like this.
This stream is off the river road and you can hike the stream bed 4 miles to the pour off and waterfall.
I wore sandals for the whole trip and the water was pretty warm as the depth was generally only ankle deep. I was glad that I had a belt on my shorts as the force of the waterfall could cause a wardrobe malfunction otherwise

Where's the pictures of the bikini-less desert women?? Good thing you had your Model #28 which is stainless in case of a survival moment. Super great pictures as usual.

It is pretty hot here now as expected so a few of us went Jeeping to La Sal Pass which is a little over 10000 feet. It was about 70 degrees which was great since it is about 100 degrees at 4000 feet. We saw many small critters, and some big critters including some deer and this bear
Great driving through the woods, if you would have gone earlier there might have been snow and downed trees. It might be good to have a chain saw with you
