hey well this is perry peacock with wilderness innovation and I'm pitched up here zions Park kolob canyons section and you know it's one of the reasons I like to carry my punch it with me all the time it can be a tarp or a chair super shelter or a Yukon chair it can be a hammock poncho I mean you know there's really why not take it because you're going to use it for something but what a here I hiked up this mountain want to kick back and relax and I just pick up my poncho as a hammock and sit in it like a chair and I can feel even though it's a hot day out here because I'm in this poncho there's a little breeze blowing it kind of cools the underside of me in the back side of me and I sit here swinging a little bit and it is just awesome just a spectacular view what a place to hang up right here across from me but I hiked up it's coming back from a funeral for my cousin she she's killed in a car accident a week a week ago yesterday and funeral was yesterday and I came down here and and they lived down you know just a half hour or so from zions park signs national park I got these two trees right here space fired up just to work I actually had to hang a little whiter than I normally do so i use my Dyneema am still am steel blue cord because i was getting too much stretch out of my parachute cord as far back as i had a pitch in order to in order to get this thing to hang up here properly so so anyway I'm glad I brought that with me I decided on my way back today I'm driving right by Zions why not just pull right in here but I just when I just pop in so I did popped in and I hiked up beside the mountain here a little ways keep looking for a place I wanted to pitch my poncho out here somewhere that the difficulty really i thought it would be easy you know just I saw this mountain I could climb up the side of here and I thought well I just climb right up there and take a picture but the thing is I got to get in an area that there's nothing obstructing my view so there we go that's what I'm looking at over there straight across from me kolob canyons and it's just absolutely beautiful beautiful and my wife Shawna and I a couple years ago we hiked down from well back from back up here ways dow dropped clear down over that you can't really see it from here down the bottom of the valley you go down around there and you go out around the point of that mountain there clear back over there and back up a canyon or down a canyon it's downhill all the way way back down in there along the verkan creek and it is just stunningly beautiful i've put some pictures up on facebook and different things like that but and back to good old me I got to get this thing Rocking again
