Paul's 2010 motorcycle trip: Making Lemonade
http://pauls2010motorcycletrip.blogspot.com/2010/08/making-lemonade.html
Paul's 2010 motorcycle trip. Saturday, August 28, 2010. Was an area near Urvana to see the "hanging flumes". Wow! No disappointment there. It was as cool as I envisioned. Constructed in 1889 and what you see in the pictures is all that is left. The flume stretched about 15 miles when it was built and I think 3-4 miles of this were hanging off the side of the canyon walls. To learn more about the hanging flume in Colorado go to this site http:/ hangingflume.org/. The bike would not restart. Crap, crap!

Monday, August 20, 2012. 2012 - April 18th - The Pollock Windows, McInnis Canyons National Conservation Area/Black Ridge Canyons Wilderness. I was in need of a warm-up hike. I had made plans with Stan Wagon, an arch-enthusiast, to hike to Perseverance Arch late in the month. That would be a 17-mile trek. Since the longest hike I'd ever completed was the grueling 14.5 mile, "oops I ran out of water" jaunt to the Rattlesnake Arches. A year previous, I figured I ought to be ready. It was a warm morning as I...
