Ben and I drove to Potash road last night and camped in the trees by the Colorado river. It was quiet and cool. I heard weird cat growls at night, and it turns out there is a car feeder near by .. and we are suppose to call if we hear cats? Very strange.
We didn't pay for tonight. HA. (since we had paid for Slickrock last night, I thought it just seemed right… )
It’s breakfast time, climbing.. and then biking. Sounds good doesn't it!!!
As the day progressed, we ended up staying at the crag later than we thought. I on-sighted an amazing 10.a mixed climb and a 10.a sport. It was a wicked day, and we felt good afterwards. Around 3pm, we realized the time and came to the conclusion we hadn’t eaten since 9:30am. HUNGRY!
Andy and Rhi had to high-tail it back to Salt Lake asap, so we said our goodbyes and gave our loving hugs. It was sad to see them go. I’m so happy we got to see each other though. I miss all my UK friends.
We decided that biking was out of the question. We were pooped from climbing all day and felt like just taking it easy.
Ben and I packed up the truck and headed to Gemini Bridges area to camp. It actually started to pour with rain around 7pm. It felt nice on the skin, as we have been putting up with scorching head for a week now. The rain made the air smell fresh. I liked it.
This road we decided to drive up was gnarly! Totally off-roading in the rain, climbing higher and higher up a canyon. We explored a little bit when we got to the top, the road was sandy and long. Trying to find the perfect campsite was easy, as every single one was stunning! We finally chose the second last site down the sandy road. By the time we set up camp, it was dark. The rain had subsided and we were able to get a peaceful sleep. The air was cooler, only 14 degrees. Perfect.
We crawled into bed and feel asleep immediately. We pass out so easily.. it's like, the minute I crawl into our tent, I'm out like a light. ZzzZZzzzZZ
