We could always do a Disco fest later and get your turn through Subway out of the way. Run a chance with Monsoon season.Quote:

Wasach, doesn't seem like anyone has signed up for Echo or Spry so maybe no one wants to do those canyons.
Seems to be a lot of interest in Englestead and Orderville. Wanna co lead a trip like that? We could put folks on belay from the bottom (the only scary part being that first rap in). Or Birch & down thru Orderville?
Only problem with that is that Birch might require a 4WD I think - I don't have one. I'd like to do Orderville again - it's wonderful!
No, Randi. The dates remain. Things happen and this is on me that I didn't check the dates. Originally I had planned on having it earlier in the month but when it was bumped back to the end, I should have caught it. Dates remain and it is going to be AWESOME!Quote:

I like it!

Josh, Brad & Cody would also like to be put on the Das Boot/Subway group list.
We have our own gear, including ropes (3 x 60 meters each, static). Josh & I did Das Boot/Subway last year and would be happy to assist the leader in any way needed. Cody and Brad have not done the route but aren
What about Orderville Canyon?
That is an awesome trip for Newbie's! No one wants to lead it?

Also someone could consider doing a Sunday Subway trip since that canyon is full already. :popcorn:
Saturday is the most popular day so we could have some more of those trips going. Many newbies will only do a Saturday canyon and then they have to drive home.

I suppose I could be considered a newbie, to this group anyway. I've done lots of hiking and backpacking, but mostly in AZ, the Grand Canyon especially. I've done a few hikes in Zion, most notably a through hike of the Narrows a couple years ago, and Angel's Landing a couple times. Nothing really crazy... I'm really looking forward to getting some play time in these canyons...
Sure looks like fun!
Hank :nod:
I would like to head into Echo and/or Spry with you Randi? Not sure what day(s) you were planning them for? I may be able to tag along on the Pine Creek/Keyhole as well with Shaggy! :2thumbs:
Bo
Welcome to the group Hank! You know Bo from the Grand Canyon and Zion Yahoo Groups.
Randi and Bo I will put Sunday on those trips. If I have things wrong just let me know please and I will fix them.
Tanya, thanks for helping me get set up for these hikes. I'm looking forward to finally meeting Bo and seeing you again... and maybe exploring some ideas I have for an 'interesting' loop in Marble Canyon one of these days. I'll be scouting out part of the route in a couple weeks...
:mrgreen:

I guess I'm on my own. I hope to heck "someone" in the group can navigate! So if you don't show up Shaggy, Don can take your spot on the Subway hike. I do hope your schedule changes and you are able to make it! Work sucks! There's no way I'd even do it if I didn't need the green! :mrgreen:
PS: I went on line last night to get a lottery for the Subway and the only month they had available was for July! What does this mean? A June calendar isn't available on-line for "regular" permits....not until April 5th Tanya? So I guess I need to get back on line & try to get a permit on the 5th then? I hope I can get one!
We had to make some changes due to Shaggy's maybe schedule.Quote:

Mystery is an awesome canyon where the last rappel takes you into the Zion Narrows. It is a favorite of many.
Pine Creek and Keyhole you did last trip, but when the water level changes Pine Creek can seem like a whole different place.
