Baptist Draw and Upper Chute Canyon, San Raphael Swell, Utah
So we were on our way to Larry Canyon down in the Roost. I had heard it was a classic. We left Friday afternoon around 2pm. Traffic wasn't to bad heading out of town. Before I knew it we were in Spanish Fork Canyon. Everything felt right. We were making great time, the conversation was good, and I couldn't wait to get there. We stopped in Green River for one last fill-up. Damn! Missed the turn-off to Horseshoe canyon again. So how far is this dirt road again? Let's make sure we don't miss the turn...Want me to drive? Cool. Let's go! Man we're making goodtime. Woah! Troy thinking too himself, "Why is the truck losing power going up this hill?" Damn fuel pump! Too make a long story short...We ended up limping back to Green River for the night and getting a hotel, hopeful that we'll be able to fix the problem there in the morning and get right back to Larry. Boy was I wrong. Saturday morning comes, my dad s\is done playing with the roaches. We head out looking for a mechnice. Well to keep this short...Nobody's can fix it until at least Monday in GR. Should we see if the beast can limp back to Price Pops? That's our best bet I think in getting this fixed. At a top speed of 30mhp...mainly 10mhp. We barley ake it to Tune-x in Price (THANKS MOM!). They get us going by 2pm on Saturday, Should we bail or salvage this trip we ask ourselfs? We decide to run to the Swell. Baptist and Chute here we come. |
