Oh Idaho...This state is my favorite place to travel in the summer. My family started going up there 7 years ago on a friend's recommendation. The drive up to Idaho from Utah is not so exciting but once you see the rivers of Big Wood, Lost, and Snake; the scenery changes and the beauty of the...

Oh Wyoming...A state with some much area to roam. My wife and I used to live in Jackson Hole and as many know; it is gorgeous! Some would say that it's the prettiest place in the US. The one draw back to living in JH is that we didn't spend a lot of free time exploring the other parts of...

A few years ago, I looked at the map of Utah and started to read and research the Dark Canyon Wilderness. The area on the map caught my attention. Or, should I say captivated my attention. I needed to find the time. How could I get some time to really explore it? Backtrack a few...

Ahhhhh...Is that a a "wall" of water coming at us? Is that foam moving? Why is there foam in the desert? These questions and others flashed in our minds as we were driving towards it! My friend Barb and I took a few deep breaths and scanned our surroundings for a safe exit out of the flash...

No matter where the trip or what you are doing; there is one moment where it all makes sense. Mine on a recent trip to the Utah desert was in a slot canyon with my daughter Lilly. We were approaching an ole moonshine from the Prohibition era of the early 1920s. Lilly stopped on a rock and...

For my family and I, winter is a great season! We live in the mountains of Park City, Utah. Winter provides feet of snow to enjoy in the resort or the backcountry of the Wasatch. February also provides a week of vacation for us...Ski Week as we call it. The week prior to President's Day, I...
