Corona Arch Hike
My very first hike in canyon country was to Corona Arch. The arch is not inside Arches National Park, my new home for the next 5 months, but rather down Potash Rd. a few miles outside of the town of Moab. It was sunny and beautiful, and the trail was extremely crowded with 3-day weekend tourists. It was a pleasant short hike, and a great introduction to the area, though I can't wait for official training to begin tomorrow!
Look closely at the following two pictures, see the pictographs?

The Shortest Winter in Existence
We had all of about 2-3 weeks of snow total this winter in Yosemite. Currently, it's been sunny, and almost summer-like with staff walking around property in short sleeved tees. In October we had a small dump of snow which wreaked havoc for about a week. Now there's not a flake in sight.
