Crack Canyon TR
Headed up Crack Canyon with a group of people I belong to. We couldn't have asked for better weather. Durning the mornings and evenings, jackets were needed, but the days were warm.
We camped near Temple Mountain. There were people everywhere. Lot of ATV riders out riding, but they were very considerate, not racing by and being crazy. (probably my first good experience being in the same location with them).
We started up Crack after breakfast. This area is amazing.
Here is the group starting the hike
Further down the canyon
We ran into a few water obsticles, and on one occasion, we had to climb out then back down to avoid getting wet.
It was a warm sunny day, and the scenery was wonderful. I can't wait to do more exploring in the Swell. It is fast becoming on of my favorite places.
Old Uranium Mines in the area

This is me accessing a geocache near the campsite. Sorry about the quality. I took it with my phone.

Thanks for the report, good pix. When I was down there a couple weeks ago, I was amazed at the number of people camping in that area. I didn't do Crack Canyon, but the walls look much like Wild Horse and Little Wild Horse. I'm sure it's a good hike.

Thanks for sharing the pix. Especially good to see people taking the little ones out, now that I'm in that demographic too. Bummer about the ATV's. I know how that can ruin an outing, not to mention create a major safety hazard when you've got a little one ambling about.
