Great questing, mocat.  Bet the visions would have been amazing if you’d eaten that shroom!

Mocat, all those pics look amazing. But have you ever played 18 holes in cabo while its 96 degrees with 80% humidity on back to back days?

Talk about a vision quest, woof.

Morning run started out great.  Cool air, amaze views, made it to lake destination on time.  Then I sprained my ankle, hobbled down the last four miles, missed out on a bear sighting by a couple minutes, then backed into another car on my way out.  At least I got these sweet pics.

Do you guys remember this poop parade?  I sure do.  Haven’t been on that trail since.  Until today.  Hit some nearby trails and lakes this morning and then decided to give this one another go.  Rolled my damn ankle again.  But no car accidents!  And I got these sweet pics!

Catchacold, do you live around there?  Absolutely loved our trip and would I totally pick up and move if I could figure out the details.

Yeah, have lived in Bend for around 5 years now. The mountain biking was the main draw for me, pretty great to roll out from home and access so much singletrack.

I definitely see the draw.  Has similar (maybe in even better) access to trails as I have here, but in a town more my size and pace.  Plus no weird Mormon crap to deal with.

irl tho rappelling off that stone bridge/arch thing was the scariest thing i've ever done. it was about 250ft above the canyon floor and you just back up over the edge like an idiot.

VQ!

Hey moabcat, great pics!  Thanks for the reminder that I’m overdue for a little red rock therapy.

Did you stay long enough to experience the amazing all new 5% Utah beer?

I'm getting pretty excited for my vision quest July 10th-17th out in south central WY along the N Platte River. Current plan is to camp here for the majority of the time and fish the N Platte/other streams in the area.  :ksu:

I haven't made it out to WY yet but about 1 hr south of the cat ranch is the little Jerusalem Badlands.
