Labor Day Camping in Ephraim & HTT 30Aug2014

[jinxspot]

Once again a spectacular time camping in the Manti-La Sal National Forest! We all rolled in late Friday night to make camp and were pretty rambunctious for the HTT on Sat morning!

There were additional folks that decided to meet up with us to run the trail and although we got a later than expected start, it was def an excellent day out on the trail. We rolled onto hanging tree about 11:30 and were headed back to the trailers around 7pm. This included a few different optional lines thru out the trail and a couple trail fixes that required some group attention. All in all, great comradely across the board with plenty of good spotting which boosted confidence to take harder/optional lines!

I'll let the pics/vids speak for themselves, note the amazing colors on the changing trees!!!


Attendees who brought rigs were:
Jerry - black n blue CJ buggy
James - black n purple CJ buggy
Ryan - Copper FJ40 buggy
Chase - Red Yota buggy
Adam - Bright Blue XJ Buggy
Barclay - Black with stickers LJ Buggy

Awesome, we were in the Uintas and the leaves are definitely changing colors earlier than usual.
