hey now, our part has mini mountains.

nice pics, don't they have a run up sunlight over Labor Day weekend?

Is the upper Morrison pics off of the main trail? There was a branch off we looked awhile ago but I don't think it went through to anywhere. Forked off the main trail about halfway through, dropped down a rocky trail and a comes near a lake.

We normally do sunlight over labor day but did it earlier since the original group going up are also going to moab the weekend after labor day. We ended up having 10 rigs come this year and did some conservation on some of the trail.
The upper morrison part we basically come in from the end of the trail with plans to turn around at the top of the switchbacks. We had a setback with starting time and a trail repair so we only get back in about 5 miles and turned around. If you came up the switchbacks this would have been the right fork. The left fork just takes you into a ranch.
