Went here for the first time after lunch today (Tuesday 9/25). It was chilly where I parked at the Mueller Park trailhead, mid 50s according to the car thermometer.

Rode down to Bountiful Blvd...

The leaves are changing fast, I've been up there about 3 times over the past week and each day the maples are more and more red. My dog was hiking up Wheeler from the dam with my wife, and he ran...

My video from last night (Friday, September 21st). Exact same route - Maples trailhead, Sardine clockwise, Wheeler to Icebox to Pineview.

Here's another one off Craigslist for $1,800. What city was yours stolen from?

Googling the phone number from the ad links to a software company in American Fork, same first name from the ad. I'll leave it at that given the presumption of innocence. Legit phone number though....

Anyone done Ben Lomond in the winter? What route would you recommend? Thinking about going sometime in the next week.

CNN video interview.

:roll:

True, but it doesn't need to, unlike SPOT. Your Fastfind and my new ACR ResQLink both transmit to COSPAS/SARSAT on 406MHz at 5-watts or greater, which will most likely penetrate from deep within a...

*No pictures! Apologies, I'll do better next time*

Wife and I met up with a friend at the Horseshoe trailhead late Friday after work. Slept there, then set up a shuttle in the morning for the...

I didn't mean to imply the guide was unpleasant about it. We were coiling up our rope when he got to the rap, and he yelled down to ask if we wanted it back. We replied no, which was when he said...

Did Rock of Ages this past weekend. As previously mentioned, the pins at the top of the last rap have been pulled, and there is the single bolt by the bush that you can use to protect the bolt...

I did Subway top-down about this time last year, and was surprised by the water flow. Based on the combined experience level of our group (low), in hindsight I would have probably reconsidered doing...

I wore my 5-fingers through Orderville last fall. I was originally going to use them only on the double-track into the first dryfall, and then change into canyon shoes, but 12 miles later I was done...

That bat was there two weeks ago! (9/12). Looks about the same.

First drop in Subway has a pinch point w/ sling and rap ring for rappel, no bolts though. Bowling ball water is usually quite deep, that'd be bad luck to bottom out there. Could have been anywhere...

All true. Again, they provide zero support of any kind. It's like walking barefoot without having to worry about sharp things. Mileage in these things will make your calves ripped though. It's...

Wore mine through Orderville this weekend. Didn't intend to do the whole thing in them, just the hike down from the parking lot to the dryfall. But 2 miles turned into 12 and they kept feeling...

I had my 60CSX for a long time and abused it regularly. It fell off the clip and over the edge while descending Russell Gulch to Subway in April, never to be seen again. I though about replacing it...

My favorite locally is "Zion's National Park." Also 'irregardless.'

iRock in Ogden has all of their TRs set up for an 8-on-a-bight. When I've climbed there I don't mind clipping in. You don't take any more load off of a TR fall on a static rope (assuming your...

Funny timing for this thread. Tried for the glacier on Friday June 11th. Snow is as pictured, almost the same exact vantage as Ice Axe's picture. Made it up to the bottom of the narrow pitch up to...

I was there April 25th, my first time doing Subway (top down at any rate). I'm laughing now because I didn't realize the 'puddle' at the bottom of Russel Gulch wasn't supposed to look like that. ...

I didn't get too many photos taken that day, and none of bowling ball corridor. I need a better setup for my camera dry case. Regardless, here's the keyhole with the log positioned as shown. It...

Went top-down this past Sunday, the 25th. The permit desk said there may still be snowpack on the road into the trailhead and on the first mile before the slickrock descent, but this wasn't the...
