Upper Desolation Canyon...solo

It's been three years since my last solo trip so I was jones'n in a big way by the time I got to the put-in.

Sat on my ass to read a book all day

Upper Deso, as it's known, is just as spectacular as lower Deso. Most folks think Deso starts at Sandwash, but I think our ol' friend, The Major, was up stream of Sandwash quite a ways when he was inspired to slap a name on this particular piece of country.

Ouray put-in

Good lazy floatin' clouds

Thanks to Stag-man who owns Desolation Outfitters for dropping me off at Ouray Wildlife Refuge. It was only three days, but just what I needed.
