Cherry Canyon - Virgin River Gorge
Date: 10/24/2024
Took 6.5 hours point to point. River was cold but easy to ford. Fairly strenuous approach hike. Saw a tarantula and a bighorn sheep while in the canyon. So much fun!

With Greg and Justin. Unavoidable water that was ankle deep at the end of the second to last rappel. All anchors in good condition.

Angel Cove Slot - Angel Point

North Fork only with Greg and Justin, and made friends with Scott and Amy in the canyon. First two anchors were completely missing and there was only one fixed rope in the canyon. Unavoidable waist deep water after the fourth drop and beyond.

Hog Canyons - North Wash
Date: 12/25/2022
Greg and I did Hog 2 and made friends with Kris and Cory along the way. Bushwacky on the approach and the short cut exit up to the canyons was terrifying at the beginning. Scary deadman anchor for the first rappel because of the length of the webbing but the rap definitely wasn't as long as it said online. Rappelled through the birth canal, which was the toughest part of the route. Parked at the hog springs rest area and then did the exit hike up the gully to the high clearance parking area with Kris and Cory. 7 hours car to car. What an adventure!

Cassidy Arch Canyon - Capitol Reef

Funnest route Greg or I've ever done. All anchors were bolted and easy to find. Some of the hangars were spinning a little but the bolts seemed fine.

Providence Cave - Nothern Utah
Date: 10/09/2022
Was able to reach the trailhead with Noah's Hyundai Santa Fe. About a mile hike to reach the cave entrance, which the trail went directly to. There was a hand line tied already to get into the cave, although one wouldn't truly be necessary unless it had just rained (probably). Very tight in the beginning and then opens up nicely, eventually coming to the Aggie Ballroom where there is a register and laminated map of the cave. What an amazing experience!
