I spent a few days camping and hiking by myself down in the Comb Ridge area last weekend. Took about a million pictures. Here about half a million of them .

On 9354 did you use a wide angle lens and any kind of filter?

This photo does it for me. I want to place this on my wall. You covered a lot of ground down there. Good work.

These are all short to very short hikes - from less than 2 miles round trip to the longest I took on this trip was maybe 7 miles round trip. I took a lot of them though . Ended up hiking about 25 miles total on this trip.

About a hundred miles from Moab, give or take. Miles can add up fast in this country though. By the end of the trip when I stopped at Hite for fuel I had driven 320 miles since filling up in Blanding.

I love that area. Roger took me down there for the first time last year. I would like to hike to some of those spots this year.

Awesome pictures!

Everything is uphill though.

I'm down, let's plan a trip. And I have my own harness now.

If I could ask few questions:

Why does Tripple S need to be on a leash?
How easy is it to set up that tent by yourself?

Why does Tripple S need to be on a leash?

Good question. I've only met him once but I thought he was very well behaved around strangers. Never once thought he looked like he was going to bite anyone.

How easy is it to set up that tent by yourself?

Very easy! Takes me five minutes. Little longer to take down, roll up and put away - ten minutes for that.

Thanks. I am torn between a nice ground tent like that and a RTT.
