Sign in to post a Greeting.
Welcome to the group Klaus. It's great to have you aboard!
Sounds good to me - I will plan on it and talk with you during the week next week for time/ location to meetup. Leaving right now for Moab. We may do MMI canyon today then it is the Canyonlands turkey feast. We will proably do canyons (maybe FRI) Saturdy and Sundy of thanksgiving weekend. The more the merrier. [masked]
Hey Klaus, if I got your ph # I have misplaced it. Pls send it again and refresh me on when you'll be in eastern UT? Are we going to try to get together for any canyon(s) over T...day weekend? Shane and I are getting into a slot on Wednesday. Steve Morga, Lyn Brown and I will do canyons some combo of Fri, Sat, Sun. Any of these are open to more canyoneers. You talked about a canyon for the following Satruday that I said I could come over to do but I seem to have misplaced those notes too.
My number is [masked]. I have Verison service with an iPhone and when I've been at the Needles Didtrict end of the road before I had terrible service. WIth that in mond, most any Thanksgiving weekend dialogue should go on by Wednesday. The following week I'll be home in Fruita and can receive full cell service in prep for oyur Satruday, Dec. 3 outing.
Hey Klaus, just saw the greeting you sent me on Aug 5 for the Zion Canyoneering. Sorry for never responding, I just don't know why but I never meetup greetings.
We'll meet some other time
Cheers

hey! sorry I didn't get this in time! I would of loved to of joined. We ended up doing the Subway and just hiking narrows from top down and exploring a little bit. Great place! I'd love to go back there for a weekend soon and do some of the other things like mystery, orderville, and pine creek. heaps and imlay have raps that are a little to crazy for my comfort around heights at the moment. Any plans to head back there?
Hey Klaus,
I'm a park ranger here at Zion in the summer, and Death Valley in the winter, which means maximum access to canyons. Don't know why, just know being in them makes me happy. I have my own rope and gear, minus pothole escape stuff. I can get permits for free as long as I work at Zion. And, I always have Mon-Tues off. If you are ever around Zion on Mondays until October, let me know. I'd love a canyoneering buddy!
Hahaha, thanks for keepin me in mind! Definitely not my glove. Btw, sorry I bailed last minute on the adventure. I had a big family gettogether on Saturdya that continued into Sunday. Looking forward to the next one though.
Martin
Would I be able to meet up with you all? Is there room for more folks? I would love the opportunity to gain some knowledge and experience.
Will you guys be coming back to UT anytime soon?
