| no partners | | This was part of a trip that included Wire Pass Canyon out to Buckskin Gulch, Coyote Buttes South, and Toad Stools. We met some friend who live in SLC and had a short time to squeeze some hikes. As usual we had applied for a Wave permit months ahead and were denied, so we settled for a CBS permit instead.
We stopped into the visitor's center in Kanab on Friday to check on road conditions since this there was about a foot of snow that fell a few days before, and now the temps were in the high 50s and it was melting fast. They told us the only problem was about 4 miles in on house rock valley road right about the Buckskin Gulch trailhead. they advised, there was some water flowing at that crossing, but if we had a 4wd with clearance we should be fine. I drove out there and checked it out and decided we would be good to go the next day when our friends showed up.
ToadStools - This was the end of our day, and it was a nice ending. We kept commenting on how it felt like we were on another planet. A short hike, but the payoff is a nice one. I can't help but think of all the people who drive by on the highway and are missing what is just a mile and a half away.
