The 4th annual Melissa Berry Moms Trip. Here are some highlights. Amanda and I arrived at the trailhead at 1:30 AM and threw out a tarp to sleep. The rain and snow had a different plan and we were sleeping in the car before long. The next morning we dropped into Russels Gulch and did that small section. Then met up with Nolan, Sandra, Sam, and Cam for the Subway. We had thick wetsuits and were happy about it. We tried to move quickly since the Balls crew had to drive all the way back to SLC that night.
The next day Amanda, Stacie, and Vy headed out to Behunin Canyon in Zion. We got a late start which started the day off wrong. BUT we had a great time. It's a beast of a hike up to the drop-in of the canyon. Lots of huge rappels. We did great until we got to the swim that Stacie had to do. Then almost dropped the rope on the last rappel into the Emerald Pools. Then couldn't pull the rope. Exiting in the dark and finding a ride back to our car. No cell phone service worried everyone back in St. George.
The next day we headed into Water Canyon. No water so it was easy.
By Saturday we were all exhausted and spent the morning in the hot tub, eating, and visiting at the kitchen table. What a great trip!
