Off to Nevada!

Today we leave the Canyon Range and Delta behind. We will be heading west to Great Basin National Park (nearest "town" is Baker, NV).  This is one of the last regions of the country without cell service.... there is a pay phone at the Visitor's Center. (I wonder how many of the students have ever used a pay phone before?)

We'll be there until next Wednesday. One more two-day mapping exercise, a one-day cross section through the entire state of Utah, and then the traditional Wheeler Peak Hike & Swim.  I'll post pictures once we're back in civilization. Wednesday night will find us near Jackson Hole, WY.  We'll head through the Grand Tetons and into Yellowstone, camp in Yellowstone on Thursday night, arrive in Bozeman MT on Friday night and then back in Calgary next Saturday!

These five weeks have just flown by.
