claret cup

 On Monday, all three of us went to Pritchett Canyon for a hike, ostensibly to find a particular petroglyph (we had a trail guide and everything!).  After some discussion, we missed the side canyon and by the time we figured it out, we had gone further than we had intended.  We will go back another day and actually find it.  Maybe.  We hope.

Sandy wash

Grand County, Utah, is really dry right now - drought conditions - so it was pretty sandy, what with all the four-wheelers churning things up.  We didn't see any side-by-sides until we were nearly out, however, so it as still a nice hike.  We also saw one MTBer right around where we turned around; he grinned and said, "You must be the footprints I've been following this whole time."

Claret cup

After post-hike parking lot beers, we went home for lunch.  H did a 21 mile road ride on the bike path and the rest of the day was spent reading, puzzling, hand-washing socks and dinner.  It was a nice evening and we intended to have a fire pit but (full disclosure), H fell asleep.

Stats: H 21.14 ride, 1:31 hours; H, A and M 6.14 mile hike, 2:10 hours.
