It started raining and prevented us from finishing us the hike, We bailed at the middle fork via this crazy 100 foot climb up.

That slick rock desert is beautiful country, archer! Please check the second set of three pics, as they are not coming up for me. I love that section of the country. It looks like you had a great trip.

Looks like a great time.
How long were you out and how much water did you have to carry?
Thanks for posting.

We were out for 2 nights, with one night in the wilderness.
Each person had between 2-3 Gallons of water, plus about 2 gallons of water reserve in the car.

Sorry, archer, my browser wouldn't render them. I just updated to Mavericks 10.9, and now see them -- quite breathtaking! Thanks for sharing!
