Neat River Trip!

On the 7th, me and a bunch of priest and teachers took off at 6:00 am to head out to our river trip. We had been planning this trip for some time now and everyone was excited to be going. Well anyway, we made it to destination and began our run for the day down the river. The first day was warm and the sun had burned many. (You should see my friend Casey. He got burnt badly because his sun-screen keep washing off.) There wasn't much for rapids the first day. And there was a lot of still water. Around six we pulled off to the side and camped.

The next day was greatly anticipated because we would be hitting our first major rapids. We covered our needed miles allot faster then the day before. We also had entered into Desolation Canyon that day. The ride was fun and really tiring. I didn't sleep well it seems, but was able to get enough sleep.

The third was the most exciting. That day was the day that we hit the biggest rapids of all. It seams that we there was endless amount of rapids, and the water was moving fast. We also went through the rest of Desolation and finished most of Grey Canyon. We also had a lot of water fights on this day. I got pulled into the water many times as well as pulling others in my self.

We finished the rest of the river and pulled out around noon On Saturday. We had a meal at subway close to Green River city and headed home.

Some things that made the trip fun was that I got to be with some good friends. The rapids were great, and the weather was mostly fine. Except for the 2nd and 3rd day around 6:00pm. Seams that we got more wind then anything else. We had tons of water fights on the slow moving water sections. And it seams that even traveling in the vehicles was fun. (I got to finish left over food, listen to Brian Regan, and watch some movies.)

If you asked me the river trip was a great success. And I had a lot of fun. I’m glad that I took the time to take the trip.
