    Hey thanks! It's an awesome place!
    Utah is the bomb. I'm looking at moving to Colorado soon though.

    Yeah. I'm trying to move to the Denver area until I make my millions and can afford to move back to California.

    California has its ups and downs for me. Nice weather but not enough mountains, etc..

    Yeah I live in Los Angeles so Denver is small to me. Not to mention that the company I work for has an office there that I could transfer to.

    I have lived here my whole life and love this state. It just isn't quite as free as the rest of them. Tired of taxes and laws.

    Haha we did! It was one of the best weeks of my life. I love that whole area and am hoping to get a lot more use out of the RTT soon.
    Awesome. I'll be there. Look for my truck on DP or just hit me up on here and we can see if we can get a group of the Santa Barbara guys to meet up.

    Looks like a very fun trip. I live in flagstaff so this is definitely something I need to do. I have been looking up information on havasupai point. Haven't been able to find out if you have to apply in advance for the backcountry permit for camping at havasupai point or can you just walk into the office in flagstaff and get the permit for that night? I would really appreciate it if you answer that for me. I hoping to go there this coming spring, I'm thinking May.

    Thanks

    It's really confusing actually haha. You need a backcountry pass to camp in the Grand Canyon. You can buy one at a gas station. Then you'll have to pay 25 dollars to enter the tribal lands.
