| I had a fun week. Sick of the cold, I headed south, met some great folks for some canyon fun, and followed that up with a six day river trip. All the plants in Arizona are out to get you with their giant thorns, but it was at least 70 degrees outside so it was a small price to pay. The canyon we went down was a blast, lots of fun water and great scenery. Here are a few pics... |

| Nice! What canyon was it? It looks like a great place for this time of year. That exit hike looks sick! |
