    Who goes canyoneering on a Holiday weekend like Thanksgiving? Aren't you too stuffed to move? It looks like a few folks will be in the North Wash area Nov 10-13. Everybody's welcome.

    My favorite thing to do for Thanksgiving is to go camping and...! IMHO there is nothing better than a "non-traditional" Thanksgiving on the camp stove! In recent memory, I did my first canyoneering trip (2005) in Zion which also involved some climbing in Zion and Snow Canyon, a climbing trip to Red Rock Canyon, and a backpacking trip to Havasu Falls all over Thanksgiving. Each one involved turkey, cranberry, stuffing, etc. in a much better setting than my dining room . Lots of people at the camp grounds, which typically leads to communal dinners.

    Carrie and I will be in the North Wash Friday afternoon celebrating my 30th birthday and plan to do a canyon on Saturday and then a short one on Sunday before heading back to Salt Lake. We originally were going to be out there longer, but plans/circumstances have changed. This will be our first trip to that area, so not going to push it with the level of canyon that we do. Probably East Lep on Saturday and then Lucky Charms for a quickie on Sunday...or depending on if we get through East Lep faster than we expect, maybe something a bit longer than Lucky Charms. Happy to have anyone who want to come along join in, but worst case maybe we will see you around camp? Look for the Silver Jeep Cherokee with the rocket box and Alta stickers.

    Try? There is no Try. There is only DO or DIE.
