Great shot Wes. Thanks for coming with us on this hike and thanks for the photo.

I missed the show about the "IDIOT!!!" that cut his arm off. For the life of me I can't figure out why some people want to make this guy some sort of hero. He was and is stupid beyond belief. The canyons and mountains we play in are no place to be alone. A little mishap can turn deadly here and often does.

When we go to these places we tell people where we are going and when to expect us back. Then we stick to the schedule. That idiot from Colorado didn't tell a soul where he was. He was 70 miles down a dirt road from the nearest town. Then he hiked another 8 miles in some of the most remote and rugged country in the United States. If he had died nobody would have ever found his body. He cheated natural selection. I saw him on Letterman and it sounds like he still has a strange death wish by climbing mountains alone in Colorado. Some idiots never learn.

yeah that place isn't far from where I was, it is called Horse Shoe Canyon. I will make it there another time. There is tons of indian art there.

Looks like fun!! I'm jealous that you have all this amazing scenery surrounding you. However, I just watched a 2 hour special on that guy who cut his own arm off after he got stuck in a canyon... ouch! Be careful out there Wes!

Nice shot. You make me want to visit Utah again. I've only been there in ski season.
