meet at green river state park 8am Saturday oct 15, from here drive west on I-70 to exit 131 (approx 30 miles from Green River Ut), take north side frontage road back east 3 miles to culvert/cross under I-70, then left on gravel road immediately on south side of I-70, continue another 1.7mi, then right, continue south/southeast on fairly rough road which ends at mesa-trailhead is here. 4WD vehicle recommended.
from trailhead, drop down 50-80 feet from mesa, continue south across plateau about half mile-will drop into hyde draw which will take us s/sw a mile or so to intersection with eardley canyon--we go left/southeast here and continue down eardley canyon as far as group desires or until we run into technical sections--turn around here. Bring lunch, snacks, water, and usual gear. Highs should be mid to upper 60s and sunny. This is not a technical climb but a bit of scrambling in spots.
Required Equipment
ten essentials, lunch, snacks, and water.
