Cheese by Hand

Camping in Utah

June 23rd, 2006

So we just finished our week long camping tour of Southern Utah. In all we camped in Arches, Canyonlands, Bryce & Zion. Each are quite beautiful and awe inspiring. We did come prepared to camp in the sense that we had a tent, sleeping bags, and a cooler but for anyone who has camped before that is not really the most complete supply list. After two nights without any kind of padding to sleep on we caved and expanded our camping gear to include thermarests; however we never caved on food- we just continued to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. I counted 24 total in 6 days. We did supplement with some fruits and tortilla chips and of course any reasonable cheese we could find. Sonoma Jack was a cause for celebration in the Moab supermarket. Ok ok we also snuck in a few beers and a bottle of Idaho Chardonnay (you didn’t see that coming did you?). Here is a very small selection of the photos we took during our exploration.
