-Salt Crk is amazing, we did a shuttle to hike the whole enchilada. You’ve motivated me to see more!
-Bear cans keep ‘other’ mammals out and I sit on mine. Bear Cans are not smell proof, so I store mine away from tents.
– Great photos (as always)
– Nice link about tools! Thx.

Brian,

That’s so cool! Thanks for sharing. Joan esp found the information on plants fascinating as that is her love in many ways. Fascinating overall article!

I’m an archaeologist that worked in the southern part of Canyonlands for a couple seasons, and was introduced to this article about an archaeological find from one of the park rangers there:

I thought you might be interested, given your musings on the ancient people of the area. The article is a little dry, but it basically details a pouch filled with tools and food from A.D. 700 or so that archaeologists found in the Great Gallery. I remember thinking when I first read it that it was part of a backpacking kit from prehistory.
