In Search of Sun

Late March and we had feet of snow still in the yard. The sun is what we needed to lighten the darkness of winter and so we headed South. Arizona was the solution to the March gloom and we packed the truck, loaded Finn, and we were off in search of some thing new...The places we visited were first Scottsdale to see a friend of Cara's. Then we drove to Prescott which is an awesome town with ample climbing, culture, and sun. After that was a drive through Sedona and Jerome; too much new age trustafarian vortex energy limited our stay to just a few hours. After that was BFE desert romping south of Winslow (yes like the Eagles song) to a climbing area called Jacks Canyon. We spent two days there and then headed off to Flagstaff. In Flagstaff we found the sweetest coffee shop and chilled around town like the good dirtbags we are. That night we slept in the woods outside of town. Flagstaff was cold and we had a hell of a windstorm that night. Next day we zipped it back to Basalt, back to the cold, and back to the routine of valley life.
