I have been working 7 days a week, but once June 5 hits, I will be out of work for a while. Can canyon get away June 9-12.

The Roost is getting hot by the, but I may be able to tolerate it a few days.

Fivemile Wash in Capitol Reef would be good.

Escalante is good in June if you can avoid the river as much as possible. Some ideas are Boulder Creek (and technical side slot), Ringtail, Bakers, Davis Gulch, Spencer/Metro, etc.

White Canyon area slots should be good in June.

Could even do Zion.

Maybe even West Canyon.

I'll be in Zion that weekend. I got invited to lead some of my friends down Mystery on Friday. And Saturday we are thinking of Pine Creek as our group needs to be back in SLC that night.

We have not gotten the permit for Pine Creek yet, but I'll try to get a permit for 8-10 (last minute permit) and see what happens. If not, I'm game for dinner on Friday or possibly a late lunch (or early dinner) on Saturday.

So which one of these many options did you decide on? Depending on where you go I'd like to tag along possibly between the 9th - 11th.

Almost all of those canyons have been on my radar a while too. I still need a few days to know if I'm going to be free around then though.

Mystery. Hopefully the narrows flow gets down low enough to issue some permits for you. It has been closed for a while now

I've been watching for about 3 months now.

Currently it's at 156 cfs and I suspect that it very well could be opened by memorial weekend...

Still undecided, but have a few invites.

A local friend wants to go somewhere not too far away, so we're just doing Professor Creek and Entrajo near Moab, plus a visit to Mill Creek. If anyone wants to they can join.
