Tanya,
By a lot, well, maybe for a Vancouverite, but I don't imagine it's very much from a Utah standpoint. Davis, Fiftymile (which has a fairly large cliff-top arch and really beautiful narrows at low pool, BTW), Fortymile, Coyote-Dry Fork system a few times, even kicked around the upper part of Bishop a few years ago. Llewelyn and maybe Navajo Point are on my list for the next trip, if my car doesn't fall apart. I really like the Escalante west side country-beautiful lush canyons and big overhangs are two things I can never see too many of :blahblah: . |

It amazes me how people that live so far away have gone to the little out of the way places. Have you hiked in other places in Utah as well? |

I think I will wait until the water warms up though. I want no part of crossing that water out there again this winter! You are amazing Jeff! You live so far away and it seems you have hit everything![/color][/quote]
I hope the hits keep on coming, though I wasn't aware that the movie set itself took a hit. Was it vandalism or lightning? |

Sadly, it was vandalism. :ne_nau: Last I heard, they are not rebuilding this time. |

Lots of places, including a bunch of trips outside the canyon country. I think the Roost is the one area I haven't done much in. I always make a point of getting down at least for a few weeks every year, for the last 20 years or so. Not enough time, though-my list of places to go grows faster than I can deal with in one lifetime.
Cirrus2000 on this site lives up here as well and he's already got 3 trips planned for this year. We love Vancouver, but there's something about Utah (and northern Arizona) that is pretty special. :cool2: |

Are you in those photos he posted of his recent Zion National Park trip? |

No. Haven't done a trip with him yet, although I've threatened to introduce him to northwest canyoneering a few times!
I think my catclaw-scarred visage is somewhere is this TR, though. One I intended to post here, although it's on the other side of the stateline.
