A couple weeks ago Max and I did a four day trip to the San Rafael Swell in Southern Utah to do a little canyoneering before we move back to Washington and leave the land of canyons behind. We hiked Wild Horse Canyon, Crack Canyon, and Lower Baptist Draw in the Temple Mountain area. All three were gorgeous hikes and Lower Baptist even offered us a little rappelling. We finished off the trip with a short day of bouldering at Big Bend outside Moab. This is some of the most beautiful country I have ever seen; the Reef itself is spectacular to look at, especially in the evening spring light. This was a car-camping trip, so this menu is more suited to cooler-toting folk. And I'm still not eating dairy or nuts, so hurrah if you aren't either. This one's for you.
