Spring Trip 2009 Planning
I have been working on planning our 2009 Spring Adventure trip. We have spent lots of time in southeast Utah so this time we are moving a little west to Grand Staircase Escalante. We are planning on 10 full days of travel with hiking and site seeing.
I don’t know if you have ever tried to shop for groceries in one of the small towns in Utah…. On one trip we stopped in Hanksville to get a few needed items. Mistake! The shelves were almost bare. Lesson learned. Bring it all along.
So here I am planning our next adventure. Gear lists, menus, shopping lists. When will the vacation begin?
I We will be traveling a route starting at Bull Frog, across the Burr Trail, over to Smoky Mountain and south the Vermilion Cliffs.
We will be trying out a new tent for this trip that we purchased from Cabela’s. I hope that it works… Trusting new gear when going out for an extended period of time can be a mistake. However, this tent is supposed to be expedition quality and able to hold up in high winds.
All the other gear we are using is tried and true so I hope there are no surprises.
