Christian's Bday

A couple of days before Christian's birthday he got a phone call and was asked if he wanted to do a little canyoneering in Kolob.  This is a trip he has been wanting to do, but it is tricky to get a permit due to water levels and safety.  So now that it looked like it was going to finally work out how could I tell him no.  So we dug up a couple of wet suits, celebrated the twins 1st birthday and sent him on his way. 

Things didn't go exactly the way he planned.  They stayed Christian's parents cabin and woke up to quite a bit of SNOW.  Not good.  This was not really expected in early October.  And the run off into Kolob meant the water was going to be high and fast so that meant their initial plan was out. Then aparently there was some convention down in Zions so every permit was taken.  They had to find a canyon that was outside of Zions.

They ended up doing Fat Mans Misery and had a great time.  Now I like to say he spent is birthday in Fat Mans Misery.
