    Ah, so it's under-processed!

    Album Arches & Natural Bridges

    Randy I generally like your images, but not this one. It looks over-processed with the arch being on fire and the column very dull. Hope you don't mind the criticism.

    Update on the river crossing: the sand has all been packed down tight, as long as the river doesn't flood that high it should remain that way.

    Osprey Stratos 24 Pack, REI deal of the day

    It does have a pocket but the bladder is sold separately, mine leaked! (I have a different Osprey)

    Anyone ever seen black widow spiders in Utah?

    And of all the people that are bitten by snakes, the vast majority are young males and they are bitten in the hands, I wonder why that could be? "Hold my beer..."

    Anyone ever seen black widow spiders in Utah?

    The evidence from controlled studies shows that a) the extractors don't remove much venom, 0-2%. and b) they do cause other injuries for instance: http://www.doctorross.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/bush-sp-snakebite-suction-devices-suck-emerg-med-clin-n-am.pdf They sell because it seems...

    Anyone ever seen black widow spiders in Utah?

    "The father is 58, but pretty healthy. " Yikes, I don't know, will he be able to make it? 58! (I'll be 58 on Thursday, it sounds awful)

    Embedding Maps

    I watched the video, impatiently, but I already created my map with gmap4 and have a GPX, is there anything I can do with that or do I have to import it to google maps and follow the video steps? http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4.php?q=http://bobpalin.com/homeweb/camping/20140419_1664788823.gpx

    Wild Horse Mesa

    I saw Muddy Creek swallow a motorcycle once, not in that exact spot though. I've crossed it on very dodgy ice and turned back several times without crossing it. That grey mud is terrible when wet, been there done that with customers in the truck! Somehow I haven't ever seen the cabin as far as I...

    Solo Utah Adventure

    Yes, the sand is before the river in that direction, you will be on top of a hill and see the cottonwoods down by the river, at the bottom of the hill the road turns back on itself and the sand stretch is right after that. The river is deeper on the side nearest to you, cross over to the other...

    Solo Utah Adventure

    Day 3 morning is a bit ambitious if you mean to be in Fruita for sunrise! From the Upper Cathedral campground to Fruita is at least a 3 hour drive on the Hartnett, sunrise will be around 6am. The river is currently about 12" deep and will probably be the same in a month unless there is more snow...

    Where are the top 25 Landscape photo locations

    Aha, the issue is available online, they asked 25 pros for places rather than trying for an all time top 25 list http://www.outdoorphotographer.com/locations/north-america/25-top-locations-for-nature-photography.html#.U0wTd_ldUSU

    Where are the top 25 Landscape photo locations

    It's definitely a bit US centric for the top 25 places in the world! Only two places outside North America and one of those is best known for its tiger population, that could ruin your concentration! Nowhere in Africa in the top 25? (Perhaps the article clarifies the choices) I would put Death...

    Where are your favorite primitive camping spots near Capitol Reef/Torrey?

    I know this is late but here are a couple of options: Just outside the park to the north/west right off UT24 there is a primitive campsite, it's just before the big turn towards Torrey on the right as you come out of the park. No facilities but close to the (mostly quiet) road. On the west end...

    Not sure you'd want to try to get there 'in our 2wd, lowered cars' though.
