Tik Tok Bridge Canyon, North Wash, UT
A great time to be in the wild, but with the wetness and all, not a great time to do canyons. What else was around? How about Ryan's ramble out to the Yellow Brick Road and Tik Tok Bridge? Hmmm... Yellow Brick Road has raps and swims... how about just ramble out to Tik Tok Bridge and call it good? Yeah!!
But first, a quick stop at a nice panel ... somewhere around there ...
More Pictos...

Mo.
We wander around for awhile. Then have some lunch. Here's Alicia doing her best Angelina Jolie imitation.
Took us awhile to find the bridge, because we were working from MY memory, which remembered it as being quite a bit bigger. Ryan had it exactly right on the map—I just didn't trust him.
We anchored off the tree on upper left with a long sling.
Alicia - COME ON DOWN!
Wonderful, beautiful rappel in to a wonderful spring-alcove.

Hank Moon - COME ON DOWN!!
Two short raps after the big one, made more exciting by relying on MY memory.
There's an exit around here somewhere, right?
Well, we DID find the exit, and made it back to the car before dark.
Cool plant. Alpinish.

The mighty Henries, with a nice dusting of snow.
Then we headed back to camp, and ate well.
