Doing the Seismic Dubstep is a 230 step process, with step number 14 involving beer everytime. Which can then make step number one, waking up, really hard to do.
Luckily on this job specifically, the views be numerous, and I havent seen a dead cow even once!
We bumble around and occasionally come across something neat, like this GIANT windmill on a super short support. And some of these occasions require climbing, and or step number 14.
Lately I've been mapping a lot via the new little Jeep. Not that there's any downside to this, the upside is I get to go 4 Wheeling all day every day. I try and rally up sand dunes and fail, slow crawl the slickrock climbs, really slow crawl the rough and tumbly, and drift the dry creek beds. Thanks to the jeep bc I dont think Jezebel fits in all these places. Ive even tried buying my own from mister B-nuts, to no avail.
Im still amazed at how adding 31's to a 4 banger stock jeep and you can suddenly go everywhere, instantly!
And then we come to a full day of rafting the daily stretch of the colorado riverjust above Moab. I think there were supposed to be 6 or so rapids in what seemed like 60 miles. I saw two. But the beer was flowing like the salmon of capistrana and the laughter be plenty, and the weather permitted excellent conditions. But the trip went fast as the river is over bank full and just screaming down the brown interstate of crispy moistness. And we got "the duck" to go on his first rafting trip ever. And that same non swimmer jumped in twice. BA!!

Utah....
I can officially say I enjoy getting paid to do what everyone else is paying to do. 10 Miles outside of Moab, inbetween Arches and Canyonlands national parks, we wander around in Jeeps and on foot. The scenery is awesome, the geology is awesome, the 4 wheeling is awesome, the weather awesome, the beer extremely lacking, and the parts occasionally breaking....
I may extrapolate, but likelihood is quite low....
Did I mention aliens have been here?
