Good day, Last weekend a bunch of friends joined me for a hike into a remote part of the Grand Canyon to see and photograph the Shaman's Gallery pictograph panel. Thought I would share just of few photos. Big thanks to blueeyes and Miss Buffalo for participating with the group. This is a...

In March of 2012 I made a short but sweet visit to White Pocket and was totally amazed with the area. After returning from that trip I knew that this was somewhere I wanted to take the family to spend a few days exploring all the different formations and in October of 2012 we made that happen...

It was the last day of our Utah trip 2011, before we went back to LAS. I stretched my bones on one of Kanab's campgrounds and read a local newspaper. After a couple of pages of blah, blah a nice article about a little prehistoric site near Fredonia. Cool, a nice little adventure for tomorrow...

When my alarm went off Tuesday morning, I found the pipes frozen in my Flagstaff home (this always happens when we get a big winter storm), but I grabbed my pack and headed out the door to pick up my friend Bruce, anyway. If anything, not being able to brush my teeth right away just helped me...

Grand Canyon Hiking S. Bass to Tiyo 10/2012 In a lot of ways, I think a hike is never set until you have that permit in your hand. I had spent a lot of time putting this route together, trying to prepare for what laid ahead. Route descriptions had to be found and copied, water sources...

Veterans Day | Monday, November 12, 2012 The Original Trip Report on ADVENTR.CO After spending a great weekend exploring The Paria Plateau it was time to start our drive back home. Before we left I thought it might be a good idea to finally check out Upper Antelope Canyon. I've seen plenty...

Every year my Mom's side of the Family take off on trips around the west. This year we decided to take the family and follow them down to Northern Arizona and Escalante. I've yet to do Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon due to the popularity, with that said, it was time to get them over with...

I was able to get a reservation for The Wave on November 12, so I decided to see other places while in the area. Seeing that my permit for The Wave was on Monday, I drove to Page on Friday and got a motel room so I could be ready to go early the next morning. The drive from Moab to Page was...

Arizona Strip & Southern Utah Wanderings | Day 4 Tuesday, October 9, 2012 The Original Trip Report on ADVENTR.CO Since there weren't really any good places nearby to photograph sunrise, we slept in a little later on Tuesday morning. After a little breakfast we packed up camp and took the...

Brother Jim and his partner Walter flew out for a week of immersion in the southwestern backcountry. I drove out from Placitas, NM, to meet them in Vegas on Oct. 10. The idea was to see as much as we could in the time allotted. They had a rental car and I drove my home-away-from-home ’03 Tundra...

Arizona Strip & Southern Utah Wanderings | Day 3 Monday, October 8, 2012 The Original Trip Report on ADVENTR.CO On Monday morning we got up early and wandered over to The White Pocket again to catch the sunrise. We arrived plenty early to try and catch the pre-sunrise glow, which was...
