Wasatch Random – Historic Red Cement Survey Markers
If you spend enough time bushwacking through the Wasatch you are bound to stumble on a historic oddity or two. I’ve mentally tucked away a historic or pre-contact artifact or two through my decades of Wasatch wandering – always leaving
Lunch Break on Desert Peak – Newfoundland Range
I never complain when work drags me out to the Newfoundland Range. Despite the long commute, it never disappoints. On my last trip of the season, I figured I’d better snag the Desert Peak summit in case it was a

Running on Grass – the Lakeside’s Jedediah Mountain
Chlorine gas, military munitions, ample beef, and short mountains? What’s not to love about the Lakeside Range. I’m not exactly sure – beyond the open space and relative close proximity to my home. And yeah – the lack of people
Ride that Pony: climbing Cowboy Ridge, Zion National Park
A blitz trip to Zion. I texted Tim early in the week wondering if he could pull off a hurried trip to Zion to climb a route that’s been on my ‘itch’ list for year. He was down – despite
