Boomer and I went down the canyon between Poverty Flats and Snowbird Mesa. Boomer led the way through the rocks. I had to do a lot of climbing and going down slowly on loose rocks. We finally made it to the canyon floor where there is a smooth wash to walk on. We were looking for the trail Punky and Caron created when they were here years ago. It's a zigzagging trail up to the top where they camped. We made our way alone the interesting striations and carved out cliffs. We came to a tire, and I glanced up to see if it was a marker. I couldn't see any trail, only loose rocks, so Boomer and I kept going. The wash got deeper and I felt like I had passed it.
I did see a way up the canyon with not as many loose rocks to come tumbling down on me. Boom and I made our way up. Fortunately Boom is much more sure-footed than I am. Kim called us from PUnky and Caron's site and we had gone too far. After Boom and I scrambled to the top, Kim came and picked us up.
