Spring Updates

    










We have added a new gallery that provides a detailed review of the June, 1973, backpack trip down Deer Creek, Boulder Creek and The Gulch.  Due to high water, it became a complicated adventure full of  surprises.  

Check it out at:
Outings> Backpacks > 1973 Deer Creek, Boulder Creek & The Gulch


We also added several dozen photos to the Quill Traders collage gallery.  Even if you don't know all the players, sometimes it's just fun to view a bunch of young, energetic friends having a good time...well, most of the time.

Winter Wanderings

February began with a quick trip to Park City for lunch at our favorite diner and a walk in the snow and sunshine.

The good news--we have plenty of snow with more on the way.

In late January we switched out the soft top for a new hard top which will be more secure for trips and have easier rear cargo access for Costco runs.



In mid January we joined Matt, Julie and the kids for our annual visit to the Utah Auto Show.  More photos are available at:  Friends & Family>Rob & LuJean>2019 Auto Show

Never dull at the Auto Show!


Below is the new Jeep pickup truck--- a mix of new and retro...

Out and about in the Jeep

    

In early September we enjoyed a brief get-away in Park City thanks to LuJean's sister who had several unused nights at The Miners Club -- thanks Beth!!

 

In early October we returned to the North Fork of American Fork Canyon to check on the autumn leaves and see if there was any water left in the reservoir at Silver Lake Flat after the hot, dry summer.  Very little water, but beautiful colors.

Late September Adventures

September 28th Matt, Julie, Spencer & Maddie backpacked into Coyote Gulch for a two night stay at Jacob Hamblin Arch.  Photos of their adventure are at: Friends & Family > Julie's Album

September 24th Rob & LuJean traveled to Grand Teton National Park for a three night stay in search of autumn colors.  See:  Outings > Photo Field Trips > 2018 Teton Autumn

Moab & Telluride with Matt, Julie and the kids

July 23rd thru 27th we enjoyed a Jeep adventure that took us to Moab and the White Rim, as well as Telluride and Imogene Pass.

Bear Lake & Albian Basin

July 14th was Beth's biennial family get together at the North Shore of Bear Lake.
We joined Matt, Julie and the kids for raspberry shakes in Garden City - yum!

July 20th we did an early morning Jeep trip to Albian Basin to check out the wild flowers and escape the summer heat.
