  Len, Ben, John, Tony, and Mike fly into Vegas, spend some time in Zion National Park and head to the Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness. They leave the Wire Pass trailhead and hike Buckskin Gulch, the longest contiguous slot canyon in the US, at 14 miles, in one day; 4 more days along the Paria River in the Paria River Canyon before exiting at Lee’s Ferry, AZ. Mud, water, a little bit of snow, tight canyons, and more water, as the trail crosses the Paria River hundreds of times, makes for an [...]

  This year, we arrived at GNP from the east on Thursday, 7/27, and were staying for three nights at Cut Bank.

The Red Eagle fire started at 1:15pm on Friday, 7/28, according to the Incident Command website. Trip pictures here.

  6 guys, a rented van, a 22 hour drive, and an Xbox to play Madden Football make this roadtrip memorable. This trip consisted of several dayhikes, a disappearing gray house, and a wrong turn at Bighorn Peak. The trip report is narrated by John. Trip Report with Pictures
