Lower Death Hollow - Escalante
Date: 04/09/2025
Hiked down almost to end of slickrock section. Couldn't find a good way down and Carl hadn't brought Sugar's harness, so we bailed and hiked back out. Last slick rock roll is steep but doable. Bring harness for dogs!

The Volcano / Cosmic Ashtray - Old Sheffield Road
Date: 04/07/2025
Hiked in from Old Sheffield road, lost trail and went up the "cut through" part of the loop. Came out standard route. Used rope to downclimb steps - pretty easy but steps are at angle and hard to navigate without an aid.

Moab Grotto - Moab North
Date: 03/17/2024
Started from beginning of Levi Well road - could easily drive to TH but ground was still pretty wet from rain day before & storm was forecasted so we didn't risk the mud. Lovely time checking out the grotto, then made a cross-country loop to D2778 and then back to truck. Had heavy rain and thunder on hike out.

Fortymile Creek and Willow Gulch Loop - Hole In The Rock Road
Date: 04/21/2023
Hiked down and back up Willow Gulch from Willow Gulch TH. Broken Bow is a fabulous arch! Got past deep water slot and continued to just past the mouth of the major side canyon below Fortymile. Amazing desert hike, would absolutely do again!
