Oh yeah, about your moronic response, Bootboy, what does it matter to you why we'd prefer lodging to camping? Is your life that shallow that you cruise forums to post ignorant responses?
BTW, I'm from NJ not CA and your woman thought my pair didn't need to grow anymore.

Ok Scott, I never claimed to be an expert in canyoneering so no need to redicule me. My buddies are and I'm looking to get into it more so I'm sure the roost will be a great way to do that.

Well put Slot Machine. Boot boy probably has inappropriate relations with his sister in his tent that he's so proud of sleeping in so what should anyone expect from a tool like him?

Hey, I saw one of those nice RV's in the Roost last year - we could not figure how they made it in due to the some of the sand bars needed to drive over.
Amazing!

Bah! What is the sport in that, Tom? (friendly tone)
LVL just needs to learn the ropes around here. Flinging poo like a monkey is frowned upon (your woman thought my pair blah blah), while being clever with your words earns bonus points.
Imagine yourself as a cranky canyoneer that is trying to be civilized. Then you will fit right in.
Compared to Blondie's or Stan's, it is world-class cuisine!
But you are right, it is carnivore oriented. I normally eat a vegan diet, and there were no vegan options. However, the food my friends and I had was VERY tasty. Being in such a remote area, we were shocked at the selection and quality.THE MOST TALKED ABOUT CANYONEERING TRIP OF 2017 - WEST CANYON VIA HELICOPTER.

@Slot Machine, I guess you do have a point. Aside from the freezefest reports, things have been a little slow around here lately. Its almost like no one is doing any canyoneering lately. Guess I'll have to break down and post a report from my trip to DV

Trust me, us canyoneers like to rib, poke, and tease each other a lot and even get into the occasional flame war. If you do get rescued or injured (regardless of experience level), for God's sake, don't post it in a trip report. And certainly don't post any photos without helmets. It's probably not a good idea to take a tuxedo either.
(PS, I do think Bootboy's post was a bit harsh).
My buddies are and I'm looking to get into it more so I'm sure the roost will be a great way to do that.
Assuming you do want to stay in a hotel to go to the Roost:
For the main part of the Roost, Bluejohn is probably your best bet. For the greater Roost, Moonshine, Three Canyon complex, the canyons near the Angel Trail, Poison Springs, or North Wash are all good bets.
Most of the Bluejohn system, minus the Squeeze Fork is pretty good for competent beginners. Moonshine is great for beginners. North Fork Robbers Roost is really good for competent beginners, but the climb out can be intimidating for some. If you go to the Roost, I'd start with those.
For staying in hotels, I think the other areas I listed in a previous post are better bets, but wherever you go, have a good, fun, and safe trip.Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.

this could be a good opportunity to show an example of the preferred Robber's Roost canyoneering attire to those unfamiliar with it...

I think beginners could focus on the poison spring area out of Hanksville and be quite content for several days, while getting in some nice canyons.

How has no one mentioned the Motel 6 that is right at the trailhead for the Blue John canyons? That is five star lodging right there.

You're a brave Bootboy spewing all your crap from behind a keyboard. Face to face, I highly doubt you'd be talking the same stupid crap. Remember, your the one that initiated my responses so if you're going to talk trash, be man enough to accept what comes back at you, little Bootboy

Little Bootboy with more brave talk from behind his keyboard. You're right, I need to plug in the curling iron, blow dryer & don't forget, my electric blanket in case I get cold out there.
