Hummer Tour

When Patrick came to Moab with his Marketing class they went on a hummer tour. He said it was pretty cool so I wanted to do it too. It was a cold morning, threatening rain, but we braved the weather for the open top hummer tour. There are a couple of random kids in the back seat next to Daniel so don't spend too much time trying to figure out who they are.

This picture doesn't really do it justice. It was really amazingly steep. It was a route called Hell's Revenge near the very famous Lions Back that you may have seen on Youtube videos. You can see how well traveled it is from the black trail on the rock.
Our driver/guide was extra nice to us and took us out way further than the tours usually go. We were all the way to the Colorado River overlook. It was so beautiful. Across the river is all Arches National Park
This is not our best pose but we were under a lot of pressure with the guide and the other tourists watching us. I really felt the pressure to perform well.



On the way back we switched spots and Chase and I go to be in the back. It was even more fun! I especially liked making fun of the girl sitting next to me who was in pain with needing to use the bathroom but refused to use a bush.


When we got back on the road it was pretty cold because we were moving a lot faster. This was how Chase kept warm.
