We rented some inflatable kayaks and hit some serious H-Core class 1/2 rapids. We ran some rapids standing up backwards, on one leg, pretending we were legendary Colorado River explorer and Civil War vet Maj. Powell. We were then faced with the question of whether we were able to do this because we were as H-Core as him or whether Cataract canyon was a significantly more technical stretch of river.
The party (40% geologists) mills about on La Sal peak, Tuk, spouting off unnecessary geo-jargon.
"Dude, this is a laccolith"
"NO DUDE, this is not a volcanic intrusion."
"UHH YEA, check the Sio2 volcanic magmatic rhyolitic stalactite super-fequency index."
......
this is why we are rarely approached by members of the opposite sex - this and lycra.
