Jug Handle Invite on Sunday!

[Bo_Beck]

Tanya and I are heading out this Sunday to hike to Jughandle Arch in east Zion. If you'd like to join us, we'll be meeting at the Keyhole Slot Canyon parking area at 10AM this sunday!

Looks like that might be EARLY morning Peak Bagging with Courtney again instead.

Brrrr!!! It's cold here in the mornings. Snow flakes tried to fall, but I think it was just too cold and they quit!


I doubt anyone here will come, but just in case anyone is thinking about it.

Hey Bruce from Bryce! We still need to get together.

The plans will probably be discussed here...

[trackrunner]

I just have to say, I've seen two of your invites in the past and I would tag a long on some of those, but both dates I had something else going on. So perhaps in the futre.

[tanya]

Hopefully we will see you in the future. Yesterday was a fun exploration but we never found a way up to the peak and it was getting dark so we had no more time to look.

Any hikes planned for Sunday Jan 6th?

[tanya]

We usually hike every Sunday. No idea what yet though! The weather is not looking good for most things.

I took a wrong turn looking for Jug Handle and ended up in Key Hole Canyon. dang new entry is a mess. ... and those winter gloves are the pits for trying to climb an overhanging boulder.

Bo and Jug Handle Arch

So you guys went straight up the middle? I presumed one would climb the treed weekness on the western side(just left of Bo in the picture)
This is why we don't hike with you guys--you'd kill us
Nice shots(as usual)

[Sombeech]

Nice pics, but I've gotta say....

Tanya and that rock should get a room.

I thought you said "Rockgremlin" for a minute and I got excited.

Yeah...

We did go up the gully but went up there as well to take some shots. And then there was that detour in Keyhole.

I have to admit, when it said, "jug handle" my first thought was about a different type of jug.

Looks like we are going to North Coyote Buttes if there are permits. If not there are usually walk in permits for South Coyote Buttes. I will go to the permit office on Saturday morning to see what they have, but either place is great for photography and winter hiking usually.

I'm gonna dress up as a rock this halloween, and drive down south.

Oh wow!

[tanya]

I hope you are not as cold and frigid as this rock

I finally did the album for Jug Handle Arch.

Tanya, I have to say that is an excellent album, with some very good compositions. Stuck here in FL, I am missing that country.
