Here we have Atlas, Hamlet, The Thinker & Michelangelo's David. A mud masterpiece if I do say so myself

That's how i feel looking at everyone else's pics that aren't from here. Makes me wanna go, but then i realize you guys have snakes and poisonous critters... so I'll keep playing in my canyons til I crave more.

WINNER!


Yetigonecrazy - where are those pics you snapped? Looks very similar to the Cedar Mesa.

And where is that "radiation area - keep out" area located?

I just like this picture. Me in Keyhole

Last rap in Pine Creek. Unoriginal. Everyone takes pictures of this rap. But for good reason: its awful pretty.

Coming out of Middle Echo. Same trip as above. Goal was to introduce some friends. Got one of 'em hooked. Life is good.

Me in Benson Creek. Fun little canyon I can do from my house and back in a couple hours, so I do it a lot.


These got grainy during upload. Dunno why. Sorry.

The mud relief should be a candidate for a future calender IMHO. Not here is Dan Ransom's Storm over the Grand Canyon which is one of the greats. Since people are no longer following the one image per post rule. Here are three of my favs from the past year:

First image: Early summer 2011 in Boundry, Zion
Second Image: Pot hole school in the Squeeze, Fall 2011
Third Image: Quandry Direct, jumping after the hole was cleared. Fall 2011

Enjoy
