Enjoyed this Sunday morning stroll through the canyon with Anna and Sarah. Went in 3 miles and back out the same way. Plenty of wild flowers along the way.

In town for a wedding. Planned an extra day before the wedding and drove out to Copper Mtn with my friend Dean. Really enjoyed this mountain. Snow was packed and slick, so I kept to mostly fast blue runs with very few moguls. Certainly didn't want either of us to show up at the wedding (or miss it) due to a ski mishap. Great mountain and one of my favorites. It is really easy to traverse the mountain from one end to the other due to wide open areas up top. Being a Thursday and late in the season, the lift lines were almost non-existent. That meant a lot more runs and little time waiting.

Went in from Horse Lot with Anna, Pete, Chelsea and the dogs. Beautiful overcast day. Hiked to the spring area and out a little different way for a 3 mile total.

Put in at Snaggletooth and take out at Goldfield. Very dark this morning and stayed dark until we got through Pinball. After that, it was almost like someone turned on the switch and it was plenty light before we reached the bridge. Gorgeous sunrise, and we saw more wildlife than we did other paddlers. Always a plus. 590 cfs flow.

Met with Pat and Aden. Dropped shuttle at Goldfield then drove up to Water Users for put in. Boats on the water a few minutes after 6am. Finished up at 7:45am. Skipped some stones for a few minutes, then got ready to go. A guy dumped his kayak right at Goldfield take out. It filled with water and he couldn't move it. Pat and I helped him empty the kayak and got it back on top of the water. 798 cfs

Met up with Patrick, Aiden and Phil at Water Users. Boats on the water at 6:30am. Plenty of parking at WU, but incredible to see how much that changed by the time we were done. WU was packed full. Felt very cool on the water for the first hour. Warm breeze kicked in for the next hour, then the sunshine broke through the clouds and we could finally feel the heat for the last 30 minutes or so. Take out at Phon.
487cfs flow.

862 cfs. Cool air on the water considering the current heatwave. Splashes here and there made it feel even better. On the water at 5:10am and out at Phon at 6:49.

Great family day on the Salt with Anna, Chris, Minte, Cindy and Giulia. Met up at Granite Reef at 6am to drop off a vehicle. Then we drove up to the bridge for our put in. Nice early start, no crowds and great parking, plus weather still cool enough for an enjoyable unload and launch. There was a paddle board race going on that had started at WU and wrapped up at Granite. One by one, the leaders passed by our group with their race numbers flapping in the breeze. We cheered them on and watched as the fastest paddlers made their way to the finish. Plenty of wild horses and other wild life today including otters.

Chris, Minte and I met up with Don to hike Escudilla on the 4th. We had the trailhead to ourselves upon arrival. We started after 8am and finished about 3+ hours later. Definitely getting greener up there after the 2011 Wallow Fire. Still a long way to go before the area is recovered. It's a fresh start with new growth for this mountain. Interesting to see it evolve.

Met up with Patrick, 4:45am at Goldfield take-out. Put in at Snaggletooth just after 5am. Saw a couple otters today, two fighting horses and a coyote walking around on the north side of the river.

Just before 5am, I arrived at hwy 88 trail head at the start of First Water Road. Started my hike at 4:55am. Followed Jacob's Crosscut over to Siphon Draw and started the ascent to Flatiron. Just a few others on the trail ahead of me. Caught up to a few of them and reached Flatiron just before 7am. Its about 3.5 miles (one way) to Flatiron from Hwy 88 First Water trailhead.

Plenty of wildlife along the way. Cottontail rabbits, jackrabbits, roadrunner, quail everywhere, and a couple mule deer among other sightings.

Several other hikers making their way up as I worked my way back down. With the early start, it's mostly all in the shade, except that last 1/2 hour. I wrapped up at 8:40am and it was already plenty hot enough for me. I wouldn't want to push this hike any later than 9am. I had plenty of hydration, most of which was consumed in that last 1.65 mile stretch down Jacob's Crosscut and back to the car.

Dropped in at Snaggletooth with Troy, starting just after 5am. Had a run-in with a beaver near the beginning. It was swimming right toward me and got pretty close. It dove under water and as its body came out of the water, so did the tail and then slap. His tail hit the water and sent water flying. Got a better soaking than some of the rapids. That made for a fun (cool) start. Saw another beaver later on, plus a pair of otters.

With Pete and Chelsea. We hiked just past the last big meadow. Veered off trail down to the water and followed that for awhile until reconnecting with the trail.

First float of the season. Flow at 980. Put in at Snaggletooth and take out at Goldfield. Not much to note other than lots of bugs.

Bushwhack hell. I'm glad we did this from Hackberry for our first attempt, but knowing there is a quick access trail to the 5 Pools, I certainly wouldn't fight through the downfall, catclaw, poison ivy and other obstacles ever again. Progress was very slow and we were carrying extra gear (harnesses, rope, protection) for the raps into the pools, so packs were heavier than normal. Took way to long to reach the pools which forced us to make a decision about our available time (since we would be returning the same way we came in). Ultimately, we dropped into the third pool and from there decided that we better get on to the return. The road in and out is pretty beat up (that last hill before the windmill). Glad we had my friends Jeep. I really don't think my 4wd Tahoe would have done as well. The road contributed to our decision to cut the hike short, since we did not want to risk climbing that road out in the dark.

Easy hike along a beautiful canyon at the base of Picketpost Mountain. Anna, Cindy and I met up at 6:45am with Grace, Lorne, Izzy and Amy. Nice and cool, a whole mess of wildflowers and running water made for an enjoyable hike.

Drove up to the cabin for the weekend with Anna and Sue. Sue and I went to Sunrise on Sunday and skied from open until 2:30pm. Fluffy powder, fun runs...even a few black diamonds. Beautiful day.
