I like that last one. Spring Canyon and Hey Joe Canyon were a lot of fun despite the vegetation. :D

Part of Sara's Mother's Day was a medium cut cleaner and then a wax polish both with sander/polisher in an attempt to limit the tamarisk pin strips from trail. Really a fun trail though a lot different the other trails we have done in Moab.

Where is this? I assume its open camping????

Blue notch, and it is indeed open camping, ranger knew we were there, dues paid, all kosher. But since the question has been posted, and I can't offer an explanation for wherever the photo may wander on the open internet, I feel it is best to yoink it.

What'd I miss?

We were totally legit down there. As long as you are below the historical high water line you can camp wherever. There aren't even any developed camp sites in that area and it is marked as a camp ground on the map.

We were camped we were waaaay below historical high water mark.

so what picture was it? you've got me curious...

I was just curious where it was. I am heading to Moab tomorrow morning. I would love to camp in that area sometime. I just had no clue where that pic was taken is all.

I wasn't implying anything either. I dig the site you guys had and want to use it.

How cold was the water? Worth swimming or too cold?

It was cold, but very comfortable for swimming. Nice rocks to jump off.

If you search for "Blue Notch Canyon" with Google, you'll find some information on it. The road is about 12 miles south of Hite, UT, and is about a 15 mile dirt road to the water's edge.

The water was chilly but very nice once you were in it for a while, it is probably super good now. I bet even warm.

Tons of Stripers too, big schools of them near the cliffs.

One thing to note is the water will be higher, so everything will look different. Part of the fun is the fat that it changes all the time down there due to the water level rising and dropping.
