I graduated in 2012 with a Finance degree somehow found myself working in Information Systems. Did that for 6 years with the last 2 remotely. In 2017 my wife and I took our 4 kids And hit the road living in our trailer most the year and working out of it. It was difficult to do work and kid’s...

Here you go! You can zoom in on any area you want to look at, and mess with all kinds of settings on left panel.
Similar tastes as me, a lot of these bands on my playlist as well!
Love music while mountain biking. Hiking/backpacking I usually skip it. I do have a tendency to go further then I probably should and then am forced with a long hike out on the final day. During those times I reach a certain...
Every year seems to kind of have its own timeline, August is usually a good bet for them to have calmed down and by the end they are usually gone. Though I distinctly remember going mid August 2011 and it being the absolute worst they have ever been. That year the high country was covered in...
Light snow year for sure but still a decent amount of snow across the Uintas east and west. You'll still be postholing at 10k and encounter decent drifts above 9k.
Maybe try a summer of 1 on 1 backpacks (if comfortable). I have 3 old enough to backpack and I take them all on their own backpack (sometimes just us, sometimes with my brother(s) and a niece or nephew). They all 3 are always so excited for their trips with dad. The younger 2 (boys) both...
I’ll play along….
I agree with Ben none of the above in regards to sporks/spoons, but I like to say use your digits of choice as to be inclusive of people missing fingers. Kind of insensitive/arrogant to assume everyone has fingers. Saving the weight is nice since I can carry my firearm as...
I'm a fan, I have had a few too many bad sunburns on the back of my neck/ears. Fishing and exploring around I like to wear it over the back of my head and covering my ears with my hat on top. Maybe not the most fashionable but it beats constantly re-applying sunscreen for me! I don't...
I don't know the kind of shape you and your partner are in. Titcomb to Elkhart is certainly doable in a day if you have good conditioning and can take the altitude but there are a lot of ups and downs between the two. It's not an easy 15 in either direction so just keep that in mind...
The first time I did Deadhorse pass I remember wondering where the heck the trail actually made its way up, you can't tell at all until you are right on it. I agree Allsop pass had to have looked a lot more promising that year. I wouldn't be surprised if foot prints in snow drifts lead him...
I have never seen a bear in utah, but I have seen plenty of scat. I saw some by our camp by EJOD a few weeks ago actually and that was close to 11k feet.
What an awesome route! I can't believe you threw in Deadhorse pass just on the side of an already stacked mileage trip, although it is an awesome view. Huge props!
My geeky contribution. This Spring is looking very similar to 2014's spring (storms on almost the exact same days). If the trend stays then I would expect similar dates of zero snow at Trial Lake this year. Although if last year taught us anything its that, that can all change with a lot of...
I am really missing that web came too. There are these from Bear river lodge but they are not nearly as helpful.

I think Frogg toggs are worth a try for the pants anyway (wouldn't chance it with their jackets). Even if you don't like them you are only out like 10 bucks.
