Returning to Poe Canyon, with a new team- Steve Levin, Ramoo, Rick Green, Brendan Busch, Dan Ransom, and I.

Shoreline, Waterpocket Fold, Clouds.

And here it is, Poe Canyon itself (above our camp). Doesn't look like much, does it? Click for BIG version of this picture

Hiking in: this time, we followed the Entrada Bench most of the way.

Steve Levin, the man, the myth - on vacation after a couple years writing the new, standard-setting Climbing guidebook for Eldorado Canyon, Colorado

Morning finds us with light packs, heading up towards the Poe Canyon.

Hiking to the put-in, crossing the major side-drainage (which awaits a descent, project name: "Jiminy Cricket!")

Suiting up. It being a tad cold, wet suits seemed in order. The gang is ready to go!
