Great job Cookie, once again you guys really covered some ground.  It has been a really wet and cold year so far in Southern Utah so you did well will so much weather.  Sorry you couldn't get into Bull Valley Gorge again, we were lucky last fall to have it totally dry.

Thanks for the report and pictures.  :eusa_clap:

Thanks everyone! It was nice to re-live it again as I put the report together.
Ray, Hiker is 7 years old. We hope to repeat the Grand Canyon hike again, it was fantastic!
