Take away from this trip, high elevation and thin air does NOT play around. Started the weekend with a quick and easy 6 mile hike but...

What started out as a fishing trip turned quickly turned into a casting trip. The Green River was gorgeous but the fish were not biting on anything. Might have to use a boat next time because where we were was fished pretty hard. It was great using my new fly rod for the first time and was just great to get in the water, just wish I would have brought in a trout. Got to do a little bit of exploring at Flaming Gorge too, sitting on hundred foot cliffs and climbing through deep

Went back to KC for the weekend. Took the family this time. Spent most of our time eating BBQ: Jack Stack and Joes were the favorites,...

Did a 8.5 mile, 3000 ft elevation gain hike to an alpine lake in the Grand Tetons National Park. It was a very hard but very worth it hike, seeing the rivers and the mountain peaks and of course the amazing lakes at the top. We also spent the night in an awesome campground. I managed to snag a site at Jenny Lake Campground which was such a good spot. I would happily stay there again and it was stunning.

Spent the day around Jackson Hole, tried some bison burgers and tasty sweets. Then we got the chance to go white water rafting. It was...

Hopefully the first of many easter campouts up the Uinta Canyon. Did some really cool river fishing and caught some pretty Brook Trout. Did some drone flying and a cold plunge in the river. Pepsi even had the chance to go on her first campout. Loved camping up the Uinta Canyon and the dispersed camping all over.

On our way up to Vanderhoof we decided to stay a few days in Calgary to split up the trip a bit, we had an awesome hotel right downtown,...

What a cool place, these falls are very powerful and extremely beautiful. Someone we passed on the trail was surprised we wouldn't be...

Took the weekend to go up. to silver lake and camp, the road in was very rough but gladly we had the explorer to get us there. The camping itself was so cool, it was just an open meadow right by a small river and just dispersed camping and we found a really good spot. Its called Noble Campground located right by Silver Lake Flat Reservoir. Had the chance to hike up to an amazing and quite alpine lake and took a dip and some pictures.

Spent a full day at Bryce Canyon National Park. Hiked a lot of miles and saw a lot of orange rocks and it was great. Awesome weather and...

Had the chance to kayak down the mighty Nechako River, slurpee in the cup holder and the weather was perfect for a float.
