Tick List

3 trip Parriott Mesa - Castle Valley
Date: 11/15/2022
Muddy approach with cold wind. Snow and ice after reaching the wall. But beautiful day with Jeff.
1 trip Granary Canyon - Moab
Date: 11/06/2022
Upper Granary with Julie, Michele, Tom & Tami, Christine. M & I wore dry suits, but there were walk arounds for the really deep holes.
3 trip Fiery Furnace - Arches National Park
Date: 10/09/2022
With Kim. Came up from the south. Looked for the Lomatium trail, but can't decide which of the two options from Kissing Turtles Arch is the right way--better come in from the north next time.
3 trip Fiery Furnace - Arches National Park
Date: 10/07/2022
With John and Margaret. Came up from the south, found Skull and Surprise Arches and finished the Ranger Loop.
1 trip Bow and Arrow Canyon - Potash Road
Date: 10/07/2022
With John and Margaret. Explored the slickrock above the river, and down to the start of the difficulties.
3 trip Fiery Furnace - Arches National Park
Date: 01/07/2022
Up the south end again; found the way around the jump and followed the ranger tour all the way through.
3 trip Fiery Furnace - Arches National Park
Date: 12/31/2021
Still closed. Hiked up the south drainage again, and joined the Ranger Trail to explore some short side canyons. Didn’t go above the jump on the main channel.
3 trip Funnel Arch - Kane Creek
Date: 08/22/2021
Scrambling was harder than I remembered. Took the left route around the basin to the arch, and the direct route back down.
1 trip Cluster Canyon (aka Entrajo) - Moab
Date: 08/11/2021
With Mike & Kim. Full potholes!
3 trip4 trip Sunset Point and Goosenecks Point - Capitol Reef
Date: 06/20/2021
Out to Goosenecks for sunset and to check out Sulphur Creek.
3 trip Sulphur Creek - Capitol Reef
Date: 06/12/2021
Went solo, but ran into a guy and his daughter to share the shuttle and hike together. Fun hike! Tricky move prevents the masses from hiking up from below.
1 trip SGR Canyon - South of Moab
Date: 04/12/2021
With Michele to first viewpoint (bikes from Prostitute Butte).
3 trip Fiery Furnace - Arches National Park
Date: 12/30/2020
Still closed for COVID, but I explored the watercourse draining the area. Super fun maze, with not obvious route-finding that never got much harder than 3rd class.
3 trip Tunnel and Forget-Me-Not Canyon - Arches
Date: 12/30/2020
Just to the tunnel, after Fiery Furnace.
1 trip2 trip Elephant Butte - Arches National Park
Date: 11/20/2020
FF, Mike & Kim: the day after finishing the 6-day White Rim.
1 trip U-Turn Canyon - Arches National Park
Date: 08/03/2020
Pete, Dave, Michelle, Julie, Marty, J & F. Fun and easy! Set last rap, then waited for full moon at the fudge-cicle but it was taking too long so we bailed and looked at the moon from the parking lot, instead. Workers on 191 hit a gas line, so town power was out and traffic bottle-necked. Cleared out by the time we left the park, though.
1 trip Dragonfly Canyon - Arches National Park
Date: 07/27/2020
Pete, David, Michelle, J & F. Fun! Potholes about half full and easily escaped. Good trail to start and route-finding on the short-cut return not severe. Use the canyon across from the balanced rim boulder to exit Courthouse Wash.
1 trip2 trip Elephant Butte - Arches National Park
Date: 06/04/2020
F & J. Super fun route!
1 trip Cluster Canyon (aka Entrajo) - Moab
Date: 07/15/2019
J & F, Seatons. Date approximate. No wetsuits needed. Most of the raps can be downclimbed.
1 trip Pool Arch Canyon - Moab
Date: 12/03/2017
Beautiful fin narrows hike to a great arch. We didn't bring a rope, so we backtracked--still very fun!
1 trip Cluster Canyon (aka Entrajo) - Moab
Date: 11/20/2016
F & J. Can’t recall actual date, but it must have been around Thanksgiving since we were still working at Sagehen. Used drysuits, but that was overkill. Fixed rope in place at first mandatory rappel.
