We've ASKED the BLM to put in a HOT TUB at Sandthrax, but you know how they are, so SLOW to respond...

Oh yeah.... after a day of canyoneering nothing beats cocktails around the pool followed by a nice restaurant and a good nights sleep in an air conditioned room sandwiched between clean sheets...

New to hiking canyons with rope, Jody and myself accomplished more than we ever thought we would. After our first Keyhole we became very addicted. Thanks to Tom and ZAC for helping us get our feet wet.(and also giving us another chance to come back after Jodys food poisoning adventure.)

Our rookie list and my best summer yet:

Keyhole x4
Middle Echo
Pine Creek
Boundry > middle Kolob > out the narrows
Spry x2
Water Canyon
Das Boot > Subway x2
Orderville
Benson Creek
Mystery

Awesome job guys! Some impressive showings by the new folks! Congrats! Look forward to crossing paths with you guys in the future!

I didn't think it was such a good year; but going back, turns out it wasn't too bad afterall! Somewhere between 58 and 77 canyons; depending on how you want to count them...

...really long list...

Damn A.J. Sounds like you need a girlfriend. Or at least something to compliment this obsession...

Let me know which canyons, and when you want to hook up. Would be glad to join you heading through some of them...

The girlfriend joined me for some of the trips. Check her out styling while pushing her way through the log soup in Black Hole:

or read about the fun:

Hope to hook up with you again for some canyons soon Dan; it's been a long time... Looking forward to hearing your Alaska tales (over a Colorado beer, of course...)

Later,
A.J.

C'mon AJ, you can do better.

It's not blurry; but it is 50 paces. The point was that she was pushing her way through log soup, and still smiling. :)

Here's a couple shots at 30 paces for you...
