Hello Everybody, I'm looking for suggestions for a good, moderate hike in the 5-10 mile range up in red rock country. I'll be taking my dad who's 61 so we're looking for something that's not too much of a butt-kicker. No offense to those of you over 60 but dad's from the midwest and doesn't get to d...

This isn't, however, a place where you can make a fire and have a true camping experience. It's more like, la...

Howdy, I'm considering a trip to W. Clear Creek in a couple of weeks. We'd be descending via Meadow Canyon then heading east at the confluence w/ W. Clear Creek. Through the white boxes then exiting up the hill to Cash Tank. I've done this trip many times and water levels have always been good but i...
