The latest installment of adventure photos are from a camping trip to Happy Canyon. This is a slot canyon off the Dirty Devil river south of Hanksville UT. It was Jeep drive off the highway on Poison Spring Rd which is in a wash a good deal of the time, we then turned onto an old Uranium mining road which is blocked by rockfall just past the camping sites. There was a lot of petrified wood off the Uranium road too.
After setting up camp, we explored a little and had dinner. The next morning we hiked down to the Dirty Devil, crossed the river and got into the mouth of the canyon. We hiked up a fair way before turning back. There was some weather predicted for the evening and we didn't want to get caught in a wash with more water flowing
Here are some photos
