We just got back from an awesome 3-day raft trip on the Ruby Horsethief section of the Colorado River. It’s right on the Colorado-Utah border and is a canyon adventure if I’ve ever seen one. Want to plan a trip like this yourself? I have a post for you! We had an amazing time on… Read More How to Plan an Overnight Rafting Trip: Ruby Horsethief edition
Now that the ski season here has drawn to a close, we are eagerly anticipating picking up our RV travels again. With my injury and prolonged recovery (I was on crutches for 3 months and lost 10 lb. of muscle, which I’m working on rebuilding now), we weren’t sure if going very far afield would… Read More 2017 Route Proposal

We have been on a bit of a whirlwind tour the last few weeks. We have been moving a lot faster and farther than we did at the beginning of our trip. We’ve also been able to spend less time in each place. Mostly, this is due to weather. It’s solidly fall now, and when… Read More Antelope Island State Park, UT
Boise is a small city that really values the outdoors. I’d say that it grew on us the longer we were there. At first, it felt like a big city.
