Is this that shindig that Tom Jones throws every year, or is this your own separate deal?

This has nothing to do with me other then I attend every year :mrgreen:

I believe Tom's part in the party consists of rallying the troops and providing some slides. This is an annual shindig (4th annual?) thrown by Roger and Jane Arhart. You met Jane and her son Stevie at the Canyoneering College/practice deal we held this summer on the Big Red Rock in Draper. The pics below might jog your memory. Also if you have been to any other local canyoneering functions such as ZCC stuff you have probably seen them around.

Depends.

What's on the itinerary? If it's a wet canyon I'll need to round up some neoprene. And depending on if it's a REALLY wet canyon, I'll have to round up a LOT of neoprene.

If it's a "secret" canyon, PM me the plans. I'd like to go, and so far nothing is planned, so fill me in.

You should add this to the calendar. Just to get people familiar with where its located.

No neo required.... None of the routes are public knowledge.... couple of other possible options also on the menu, depends who signs up and the weather.... yada, yada..... This is the same trip and group that was supposed to go the first week of December.....

Good group, fun bunch, I'm the only old guy, so I'll probably have to tuck you young whipper snappers in at night..... :roflol:

For now consider me in. Since the fates have prevented us from hooking up about 100 times before, I wouldn't be surprised if something truly dramatic came up to prevent me from going on this trip. :roll: But it would have to be something like the death of a close family member to stop me from going.

I'm crossing my fingers...

Alrighty.... I have my Friday night cleared up so I can go the canyoneer party. Its always a bunch of fun.... lots of ol' gray haired dudes and dudettes. Probably be a good idea if some young blood showed up so we have someone to go fetch me anther beer :pitcher:

Anyone need me to hold their hand..... :ne_nau: .... anyone want to drive me home after..... eclipsee_steering

So. I'm going..... who else is in?

Big Red Rock, is that what it's being called these days?

I've always just called it Gutz's crag.

Its at Janes house. I'm pretty sure she will be there. Salt Lake has a high number of female canyoneers and they are usually well represented at these type of gigs.

All the neighborhood kids call it Red Rock or the Big Red Rock so I just go with the flow.

There is also a sign up there now pointing to the trail signed Red Rock or something like that. Its really turned into a nice climbing area.
