Kayaking the Green

Here we are at the put-in just below Flaming Gorge Dam. The weather cleared up just long enough to make a run.  In the second picture you can see Liz getting a little water in the face. The bottom right picture is of John. It was a fun trip, we will have to do it again next year.

Scotty and Kyle on the Mighty Jordan

Me and Scotty at the parking lot before we put in on the Jordan.
The put in was pretty telling of how the rest of the river was going to be.
Scotty surfing one of the bigger waves on the river.
Steve told us there were a few little spillways. This was the biggest and it was not exactly little. Keep in mind that Scotty's boat is around 10 feet long. 

Draper Boys Downhill

The DBD did not take place at the usual time and I propose that we still schedule a race this month so that the tradition can remain alive. This race should be called the DBD Scorched Earth Series. Let me know what you think. Without this race life is boring (as illustrated by my dog).

Our friend John, the Scientist

I recently caught up with John at his lab. It was good to see him hard at work unlocking the powers of plants. Keep up the good work John.

Climbing AF with the boys

Summer climbing is officially on, so watch out for out of shape, overweight, farmer-tanned men on the walls.  Here are three such men out having a [grand]  old time. Jeff is the official greeter to the canyon walls and John is always on the lookout for novice climbers (yes, that is what he is doing). When you climb with a draper boy, rest assured, you are always in good hands. Whether it be getting a belay or even a spot at the beginning of a climb, the draper boys are there to help.

Kayaking on the Weber

 Liz and I went out on the Weber and met a photographer from the Trib. It was a pretty awesome day.

Maple Canyon

Summer time in Maple...a time to catch people cheating on climbs...see Jeff's tongue...catch Tyler scratching his arm pit early in the morning...and so much more. 

I just got a dog and her name is Luna?

This little girl needs a name...me and liz picked her up last weekend and still can't find anything fitting. Hope all is well. I am getting stoked to paddle and pedal this summer, hope you are too. We also need to set a time for the bike race/races. 

Jeff's Cabin

Snowshoeing to Jeff's cabin...Jeff going huuuge... me and ryan got mad and pushed this here truck over...

Draper Park Fire

For those of you who attended and withstood the constant honking from the 13th East Speedway, it was a lot of fun. Thanks Tyler for getting everyone together for a nice day at the park. We will have to do it again soon. We talked about a possible river running weekend down on the Green River sometime in August. All those who are interested are invited to attend. 

A few leftover pics from the Bike Race

Here are a few more that I found on my phone. I hope everyone is already training for this years race. Also, we have been contemplating having multiple races, perhaps one a month in the summer. Let me know what you think.

Christmas Party Pics

The Christmas Party was a great success. Thanks for all who came.  From the white elephant gifts to the climbing challenge it was a lot of fun. Enjoy the photos.
