West Trip 2010

We had the opportunity to travel to Utah, California, Idaho and Montana this summer to kayak, mountain bike and climb. I've been wanting to paddle California's smooth granite bedrock drainage's ever since i started kayaking 13 years ago...finally i got my chance.

Was it all i hoped for?

Yep...it was all that and a toasted everything bagel with egg salad. AKA: amazing.

The mountain biking and climbing wasn't half bad either.
