Baptist Draw


Just got back from Baptist Draw with Alisa and some of her family. It was a pretty sweet 8 mile canyon in the middle of no where. Special thanks to Jared and Nanette for going a few weeks ago to check it out for us. It would have been crazy to find our way around without him! And even though Nanette couldn't go, we appreciated her weather insights.


Here are some images from that morning.


What a babe!

There was a ton of mud! It was kind of nasty, but it did stay pretty the whole way through.

Dried mud is much more fun than wet mud. In case you didn't know.
8 miles of this. It never really got old.

I'm sad I couldn't come. :( Instead I was at work glued to the radar hoping no storms would cross your area! Alisa, your hair looks way to good to be canyoneering! :)

Looks like fun. We have never done this canyon. Next time we would like to tag along. Nice to have someone in the group who knows where they are going.
