Announcements that are general in nature.
Spring 2021 Hike Complete!!! Nearly 500 miles walked in 32 days with many, many great experiences. I’m very anxious to share more details, pics, and videos… but it’s going to take a bit of time for me to unpack and filter through all my footage. I think I should have… Continue reading
I’m VERY excited to announce that next week I’ll be setting off on another big hike across a portion of southern Utah! 😀🎉 Last year was strange and difficult for many — myself included. Besides the drama of the world and our our nation, I had my share of personal… Continue reading
Once again I’ve dedicated some time over the winter to update and add content to my Hayduke Reference in hopes of assisting “Haydukers” looking to hike that long-distance route. Most of this work happens “behind the scenes” without getting published as official blog posts, thus I thought I’d make this post to… Continue reading
“Well… that didn’t go as planned.” I’ve uttered those words before regarding a hike, but I’ve never had that feeling about an entire YEAR! I had big plans for 2020, but by late February I was in a weird state of “wait-and-see” only to watch a series of surreal events… Continue reading

But… since this is all “background” content and not published as official posts, I realized that it might go unseen by many who follow… Continue reading
UPDATE: The Salt Lake Tribune ran an article with my findings. 🙂 UPDATED UPDATE: We know now the reality — read at end of page. ~~~ If you follow Utah hiking posts on social media, chances are you recently saw the story about about “Eco-Terrorism in Utah“. I don’t want to… Continue reading
