No, we seriously considered the Queens Garden/Navajo loop but we'd alread had three long days in a row and have another four long days ahead of us. So as great as that hike looked, not adding a couple of extra hours today will stop us from potentially burning out at some stage.
Looking back, I wish we'd left a day earlier and put a short day in the middle where we just do one ore two easy sights.

I wish cooney all the best on his 500th, he is an ever present champion of the league.
I'd also like to tread back a decade in real years when I, probably a rookie or something, made one of my earlier media threads interviewing coons who must have been a 100 gamer at the time.

And with that, my afternoon with the Demons came to a close. They are an impressive bunch and I do believe they have the right stuff to take out the premiership this year as long as they can engineer a route past the Dragons to the big dance. I was all ready to fold out the Filth futon and catch some sleep when I had a knock at my door. And wasn’t I surprised…
TFW- Hello… cooney.
cooney- Filthy.
TFW- Would you like to come in?
cooney- yeah.
TFW- I’ve got pretty much all I need for my interview. Um… I guess I can squeeze you in, no chance of an essay ha ha.
cooney- Wooooooo.
1) What were the general expectations heading into this season? Is the current ladder position a surprise to anyone?
cooney- No not really a surprise, we knew we had the ability we just had to work on a few things over the pre-season and by the looks of it, it has paid off which is a good thing, the club is heading in the right direction. Our expectations this season were to make the finals and to see how far we can go once we are in the finals but the premiership is the major goal obviously.
2)Is the 'F' word (finals) being spoken about with more confidence? Did the recent streak start making players think that they could go all the way this year?
cooney- Yes there has been lots of talk about the finals but look we are taking it one week at a time for now, we just have to keep winning and see where we end up. We all believe that we are a contender to go all the way this year, as you've seen through out the year when we get on a streak we are hard to beat.
3)As a follow on to the finals question, is there any concern that the two massive losses to the Dragons in the main season may affect the finals campaign if there is a perceived notion that the Demons just can't get it done against the Dragons?
cooney-It won't affect our finals campaign too much, but of course it plays in the back of your mind that there is just a team there that you can't beat but hey finals can be a whole different kettle of fish, so who knows what will happen, but we won't let our performances against the Dragons phase us in the finals.
4)Who has been the most integral performer matchwiseand thread wise during the season? Is there a particular MVP at the moment? And who has been the surprise packet?
cooney- I think our best performers have been both match wise and posting wise have been, ETH, myself, Footypie,DIT, Lanky Wes and to some extent Alex is on fire. If I had to choose an MVP at the moment it would be Lanky Wes just ahead of Eth and myself, I think Footypie, DIT and Alex is on fire have been the surprise packets thus far.
5)Do the Demons see any deficiencies in their list and would they be recruiting heavily if this were the case? And how much does expansion concern the team?
cooney-No not at all, we are improving each and every day as a team but a couple of handy additions wouldn't hurt. I think that we won't be recruiting heavy or many list changes, maybe a few additions and possibly a big name and that's it. Expansion shows no fears for us at all, we are a big club we have the players here, we are always on the improve and we can recruit well.
TFW- Do you ever shut the f*** up mate?
cooney- nup.

The Filth and his Fury presents 'The Demons exercised'
Welcome minions and mean ones of the league to this week’s installment of The Filth and The Fury, the new off kilter unabashedly unstructured opinion piece that survives purely to upgrade the temperature of last week’s article from tepid to lukewarm. I’m about a day behind with this one after an...

We drove from the California coast to Boulder on Monday andwent to Hoover Dam late that afternoon.
Then it was Lake Mead National Park and Valley of Fire the next day on the way to Zion National Park, including Carmel Highway. We drove it three times in two days as our accommodation was on the East side.
Yesterday was e-bikes through Zion and the Canyon Overlook Trail.
Tomorrow we're doing a slot canyon then heading down to Glen and Antelope Canyon.
Then to Monument Valley, Valley of the Gods and Muley Point the next day.
Next day is the East Rim of the Grand Canyon, then the West Rim on the way around to Vegas where we'll stay for two nights before heading back home to California.
I did a helicopter ride over/into the Grand Canyon on a work trip ten years ago. It was great.
