So, we headed out for a bit of exploring of "a certain canyon" nearing the center of The San Rafael Swell. We had been here before (4 times before to be exact), but another day of exploring never hurts, and in my defense it's only 15 miles from my house i can't help myself. Anyway, here's some photos.

Inside A ZCMI Mine- Named by the swaseys, as a dig to the LDS standing for "Zions Corporation of Mormon Idiots, for all of you mormons out there i just offended, sorry i didn't name it.
