Jeep Safari 2009

We went down to Moab last weekend for Spring Break/Jeep Safari. We have been going to Jeep Safari since high school and I think this was one of the coldest. We did have some nice weather on Saturday morning and Kelly, Debi, Jerry and I hiked up the trail to Tombstone. There were some really cool petroglyphs the whole way up.

With Jerry's expert help we hiked up this fin. It doesn't look like much in the picture, it's actually a lot steeper then we made it look on film!

Here we are with Dead Horse Point in the background, (I don't know exactly where, I could never quite figure out where Jerry was pointing to, I just know it is behind us!)

Since the weather wasn't that great we decided to go to a matinee of Fast and Furious 4, it was better than I had expected. All I can say is Paul Walker...NICE!
The weather had cleared up after the movie so we went to catch the last of the daredevils on Potato Salad Hill. There are some crazy people up there, and we saw a couple of guys put on a great show. It is the first time in years that we have been there and NOT seen anyone roll. It was kind of disappointing for us, but there were plenty of close calls that made it totally worth watching.

Some of the crazy people had a goat on a leash, weird.

This guy really gave us a show, after unsuccessfully trying to go up the hill he backed down for the drive of shame, hit some sand and started sliding sideways into the crowd. The one man at the bottom of the rock didn't even flinch, he just stood there and watched it slide toward him. CRAZY!

We had a great time, and even with cold weather it was nice to get away for a quick weekend.
