1975 + 3/7/2022
Parking in the middle of modern desert civilization.
Let’s hide into some slot canyon.
No wind, no civilization here.
Found a register on Yote. We were here before (several times).
This used to be an ocean floor before.
On a road so Wit is leading.
And into another slot.
Several falls in here so Wit is leaving us.
Climbing out of this canyon.
Going down into another. We will repeat this several times.
There is a gold vein.
Made it into our canyon.
Some walls are from rocks that we don’t see any place else.
Very interesting canyon.
And some practice climbs.
Another interesting crack in the crust.
1975 is up there.
Lot of steep and loose stuff.
That is it 1975.
Our group here.
Way down is not easy either.
Down there is Fossil Canyon where we want to end up.
Somebody was here.
There is no easy way down.
Sometime our way leads to nowhere so we have to back up.
One more butt slide and we are down.
In Fossil Canyon.
Almost back where Wit is patiently waiting for us.
Made it.
