did some exploring last week...some teasers..

saw this thing


went on a bunch of these things


found some cool camping spots along the way


saw a lot of cows


found a dinner reservation at this location


then spent a windy night overlooking this hole


walked barefoot through this thing


got to burn things


with this in our backyard


saw some goblins


and scorpions


while camping below this guy


and now i am left with hundreds of photos to edit and stuck in an office counting down the days until our next trip

trip log

 

Looks miserable and I bet you're glad to be home!

ok, yeah, I'm jealous. Wish I was able to get out there this year.

 

Smile boner

 

i need to unsubscribe from this thread PRONTO!

looks like you had a great time bob! i might have to get some of those locations from ya!

 

and those are the bad photos

i'll have to show you the good ones when i get them edited...most won't see the interwebz

 

yup...absolutely miserable...idk why people go out exploring really...just a bunch of dirt and rocks...and some of the stuff you have to hike to just to see the good stuff...wtf is that shit?!

hey put that thing away! this is a family friendly site

 

Id love to see some of the ones that dont make the interwebz, did you do any night time star or milky way stuff? im testing out a new auto bulb ramping time-lapse device at work right now, its pretty sweet!

 

no...i have a good night shot when we camped at the paria overlook though...used the headlamp to pull out the truck and got some good stars...

did everything HDR too...so i have 3 times the amount of photos to go through

biggest one i have i think is a 8 photo pano HDR (24 total photos) that i'll be pulling together

but i gotta find a nice setting with photomatix so the photos don't look too altered, just better..

like i have a sunset HDR photo that is bad ass...pulled in the darkened sky with the sunset colors, but also have great color on the truck/camp setup and ground around camp...

we'll be spending some time in May in Beef basin and dark canyon, so i will have more sky opportunities coming up in the desert..i'm a bit rusty on my photo skills coming out of tax season haha

 

on another note......

WHY ARE AIR BUMPS SO DAMN EXPENSIVE?!!!!!!

 

I know right! Those things blew up my LT budget for sure!

 

yea you planning on doing some mobbing?

also..WTF do you mean MOST WON'T SEE THE INTERWEBZ!!! how dare you taunt us..haha

 

looking for a better cushion on hard hits from unexpected ruts in the trail...

had to take a section at a good pace due to the DEEEP sand and there was a hard rut running through the trail that probably bent my frame it hit so hard...

i was fully loaded in the back still, but i'm looking for an option to give me a little more cushion for the pushin the next time that happens...

 

where i stand loaded


i love the ride height unfortunately...

 

You saw The Wave?! I am so jelly. I have never even entered the lottery, but I hope to at least try this year.

 

took us 2 1/2 years of trying...every month trying online and tried in person a half dozen times

 

im just going to leave this here for you!! ive wanted one of michael fatali's prints since about 2001 when i was in Zion NP and visited his gallery
