Escalante 2021
After 18 months of Covid, the wildfires began in NE and Central Oregon - the trip we had planned, OAS2021, was scuttled due to the vast numbers of trails on the Oregon BDR that were 'closed' by the State. We put our heads together, and came up with a trip idea - Escalante 2021. In mid-August 2021, about 10 rigs converged on Kodachrome Basin-Utah, and the exploration began. I'll let the photos speak for themselves. The trip felt truly wild (crazy terrain while very hot, very muddy), with frightening thunder storms and a bit of an out-of-control vibe. At times, we were extremely remote. What a crew, and what a trip it was. I hope the trip members fill in some of the details. There were some great adventure stories that were made that week in August. Utah is Rad !!!!
@Sean DeBruler Yep - I remember being relaxed when we were in the moment inside the wash, but the minute that rain picked up as we were headed out of it, I was pretty sketched out.
