I don't know how to do the "@" tag, but here's IntrepidXJ and xjblue, from the other side of the pour off pool in Deer Canyon on Sat. morning.

Just type the @ sign and then start typing their username.

Hey @Michael ! That is a hot spring i'm standing in. Its commonly known as Mr Bubbles, and its in the Yellowstone backcountry. Pretty neat spot!

I still need to write up some trip reports from the Escalante. I got sick on my big trip after eating with you guys, and hiked out on day 5 up Boulder Creek back to the air strip. Had to take it easy for a few days after that. How was the rest of your trip?

hiking in Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument

I just read The Devils Highway and it talks about Organ Pipe National Monument. Cool to get some context. Looks like tough country.

In the sum great. We canceled two backpacking trips - bad weather and unknown road conditions. Had a wonderful 4 day trip from Spencer Flat Rd -> Spencer Cyn -> Escalante River -> Ladder Cyn ( out and back) -> Allen's climbers route -> pothole row -> Volcano and back.

FYI. The remains of the old Jeep trail Volcano -> Upper Sandslide are still visible. We talked about it.

Hahaha! Someday you have to talk Joey into telling his story of being holed up (pun intended) in a Slough creek backcountry outhouse holding the door closed with his legs while a grizzly bear spent the night circling his abode. Ultra. Classic.
