Classic hike to start the day with @ut_shpo in @archesnps
Day one of two in the volunteer office with @ut_shpo and @archesnps Always good to see different public land agencies working together to help protect our public lands and the cultural resources they hold. Happy Joan
Cold weather, a bit of snow (finally!), and our truck still not quite ready made it a good weekend to hike locally. We revisited a few places we had not seen in a while and enjoyed our local public lands, with canyons and rock images close to home.
The annual navel-gazing I call the “Year in Review.”
We wrapped up the time @ramblinghemlock had off during the week of New Year’s with two more nights in the backcountry.
We closed out 2025 with four days on the Colorado Plateau. We returned to familiar places, Joan showed me sites she’d seen while I was away, and we spotted new ones together.
