Spring Break had arrived and off to our favorite hangout--Moab.

Had a few canyons on the list, but the more I looked at the beta for Entrajo, the better it looked. We woke up Thursday morning ready for fun and after some breakfast we arrived at the TH. How awesome is that? 10 minutes from the hotel and we were ready to start hiking...nice. I can't believe how many times I'd rode atv's, dirt bikes or driven my old Bronco right past this trailhead and had no idea this existed....


Top to bottom: Justin (12), Brandon (9), Trevor (6) and Nancy.

Trevor forgot his helmet and as a result, he got to wear a "girl helmet" :haha:

Nancy didn't really need a hand...

Trevor was cold and not having a good time at the moment, but that soon changed.

Trevor had had enough by the time we made it to the last rap, and Brandon and Justin weren't as excited anymore, so I rapped it solo. Fun rap.

I had just finished bagging the rope when they finished the bypass route.

I had to jump back in to prove to the boys that this little pool was a swimmer.

Of course, as soon as we got back to the Tahoe, Trevor was ready to play in the water again.

This is us at our favorite restaurant in Moab, maybe anywhere...anyone recognize it?

That is just how my wife looked when she hit that water in Entrajo, and with a wetsuit also!

Great report, looks like it was a blast. Better in the outdoors working together, than paying fees to wait in lines, huh? :nod:

Nice report!

Funny you mentioned that because it was just 2 years ago we spent Spring Break in San Diego and payed $200 to go to Lego Land for the day. :facepalm1: After we got back, the boys mentioned the park a few times, but what they really loved to talk about was playing at the beach and our tour of the Midway.

So yea, I totally agree with you. :2thumbs:
