Our good friend Marc Mortensen invited Dave to joining him and a couple of his friends for a fun long weekend in southern Utah for a riding adventure on ATVs. Marc provided Dave's ATV and Leonard (Marc friend and neighbor in Layton) provided the vehicle and trailor.
We spent nights at the Windham Resort in St. George and spent days (three of them) riding at Sand Mountain just outside of St. George as well as the Peek-a-Boo and Hog Canyon areas.

Riding these sand dunes on the 4-wheelers was a blast!
Here we are at what is called the Flintstone house. Left to right are Dave, Mark, Leonard and Jerry.
We were joined on the second day by some other friends at Peek-Boo-Canyon.

Taking a break at Sand Mountain. The guy in the red shirt is Harley Toon who was our guide at sand mountain. He was a local expert who was the friend of a friend. It was great to have him to show us around.
Stopping for lunch at Sand Mountain.
After a day of searching for this narrow slot canyon we finally found Peek-a-Boo Canyon. The trail area we took the second day is named after it. We experienced a lot of drama in hiking up to it.
