Maple Canyon! Pebble Pulling Paradise!

I am so excited to have made it out to Maple Canyon!  I got in three days of awesome climbing.  For those new to this area, it is a land of cobbles and matrix (the stuff that cements the cobbles and stuff together).  I realized that I have gotten a little weak!  Need to get strong again to pull-down hard!  I got to climb in Box Canyon and also attempted a fair number of 11's while I was there.  I was psyched about that.

I also got my wallet stolen!  When we drove in to get gas, I left my wallet on the hood (bad place).  Make a long story short I realized it a day later.  We went back to the gas station as they said it had been found.  Well after watching video footage, it turns out that an employee to it!  I got the wallet back, all cash gone, she got arrested, and had to cancel all credit cards.  Let me tell you that makes it tricky to travel!  At any rate, the manager there was awesome, def a road trip story for the campfire Joe!!

Weather doesn't look good tomorrow, so not sure what the plan is.  Maybe the Uinta's?  Friday I get to meet up with my amazing boyfriend in American Fork.  I'll spend three days there and then head back to Denver.  I'll hang with Matthew for a few days and then fly to FRANCE!!! Heading to Fountainbleau! Going to try to crush some boulders and take in French culture.  Hope everyone is doing great.  Miss you all and can't wait to hang-out again!
