SUMMARY:COLORADO: Raft Ruby/Horsetheif Canyon to UTAH
DESCRIPTION:Bucket list trip! \nThis is not a hiking or backpacking trip.\nThis is an overnight rafting trip on the Colorado River.\nPermits for this trip are released two months in advance. Looking to coordinate with boaters from past trips to better suit the availability of those who have been looking forward to rafting and to increase our chances of winning. \n🛶 Please add yourself to the waitlist to indicate interest. This trip will prioritize those that came along for SDB kayak camping in Horseshoe Bend and/or Black Canyon.\n🛶 If there is still space\, others may be added based on relevant experience and history of attendance with SDB. \n***\nWHERE: Colorado River from CO to UT\nRATING: Class II\nCFS RANGE: 1\,000-30\,000 (Our target is 5\,000 CFS and below)\nLENGTH: 4 days (25.1 river miles)\nTARGET TIMEFRAME: Early September (High 80+/Low 70)\nBOATS: Can SUP\, kayak\, canoe\, or enjoy shared raft rentals \n* Hoping for September\, although June is a great time to consider as well. Looking for feedback from the paddle fam. Spring run-off lasts from mid May to late June meaning high water on the Colorado which is great for rafting\, but not appropriate for small vessels. \n〰️ 14′ rafts starting at $95 per day to be split by raft crew (crew of 3-5). \nRequired Gear:\nPFD\nWhistle\nRescue Rope\nWe must rent a hard-sided toilet system(s)\, enough to accommodate entire crew. Wag bags alone are not permitted.\nWe must bring a fire pan for our campfires.\n1 spare paddle for every 3 low capacity vessels including kayaks or SUPs. \nItinerary Sample:\n📅 Day 0\n〰️ Stage shuttle near take-out at Westwater in Utah.\n〰️ Stay near put-in in Loma\, CO or Grand Junction\, CO.\n📅 Day 1\n〰️ Launch rentals from Loma.\n〰️ Paddle approximately 3.25 river miles to Rattlesnake Camp.\n〰️ Hike Rattlesnake Canyon\, 3.9 mile RT\, +908′\n📅 Day 2\n〰️ Paddle 6.9 river miles to see “Old Cabin”.\n〰️ Paddle 3.6 river miles to Mee Canyon Camp.\n📅 Day 3\n〰️ Hike Mee Canyon\, 5.2 miles RT\, +1\,459′\n〰️ Paddle 1.6 river miles to Dog Island Camp or 2 river miles to Black Rocks Camps.\n📅 Day 4\n〰️ Take on Black Rock Rapids\n〰️ Paddle 2.2 river miles to view a pictograph panel in a side canyon.\n〰️ Paddle 6.5 miles to take-out.\n〰️ Shuttle back to Loma\, CO. \n***\nAs always… \nYou must be able to manage yourself and your transportation. This trip has minimal guidance. It may be possible to plan ridesharing by communicating with other attendees. \nAs this trip is out of state\, communication is critical. There is sporadic phone service or no service. Therefore\, if something comes up\, you must communicate with the group as early as possible. \n\nMore information to be provided later.\nBearfoot Theory’s trip blog.\nRoad Trip Ryan’s blog.\nRaft Rentals from Rimrock Adventures \n\nEach participant in this paddle trip must realize that they are ultimately responsible for their own safety and navigation while engaging in this activity. \nDISCLAIMER: Enter the river at your own risk. Be responsible for yourself and your safety. Make good decisions. With any trip\, things can change\, reservations can get lost\, the unexpected can happen. A go-with-the-flow attitude is always a good thing\, and most importantly\, let’s all have fun! Make sure you are in good enough physical shape for the distance\, elevation changes\, and terrain. The leaders in this group aren’t professional river guides. By signing up for these events\, you agree not to hold the Meetup organizers responsible for whatever happens to you on these events.

SUMMARY:East Canyon Trail to Jones Junction
DESCRIPTION:DESCRIPTION: We’re pivoting from the Chilao to Mt. Hillyer hike to a local favorite (East Canyon) in an abundance of caution due to local fires and to stay clear of emergency vehicles and traffic. This is an old club favorite. It’s an out-and-back trail that is popular for birding\, hiking\, biking and running\, but should not be too busy during our trek (I hope). Dogs are welcome but must be on a leash. AllTrails reports the trail is in good shape and has some excellent back country as well as summit views. \nDETAILS: \n\nHike Organizer(s): Michele E.\nMeet: Trailhead near small parking lot at 7:45 am\, departure at 8:00 am sharp (Jan 11).\nDistance: Approximately 5.8 miles.\nElevation gain: Approximately 1\,328 feet.\nTime: Approximately 3.0 hours hiking including a snack break.\nConditioning: You need to be in generally good physical condition.\nDogs: Dogs are allowed.\nRestrooms: Are down the road from the trailhead\nAdventure Pass: None Required.\n\nIMPORTANT NOTES: We’ll hike at a brisk pace and ask everyone to stay with the group for a friendly and safe outing. Hiking may be hazardous due to uneven footing\, stream crossings\, exposures\, snakes\, bugs\, poison oak\, etc. Please be aware of your abilities and their limits. You are responsible for your own safety and well-being. This event may be cancelled due to inclement weather or other conditions. You can check the weather and other conditions on the AllTrails GPS Trail Map link below. \nESSENTIAL GEAR: Hiking boots and poles. Clothing layers recommended.

Based on your hiking during the last 90 days\, how would you score on the CHC Hike rating scale of one to five assuming a brisk pace? \nCHC HIKE RANKING SCALE:\n1. Beginner: 1-3 miles\, less than 500 feet elevation gain.\n2. Beginner/Intermediate: 1-7 miles\, less than 700 feet elevation gain.\n3. Intermediate: 5-10 miles\, 1000-2000 feet elevation gain.\n4.
