Upper Black Box, San Rafael Swell, Utah

Last Saturday, I hiked the upper black box with my friend Rich Ingebretsen and a few of his friends. The day was amazing as we hiked for about 7 hours along and in the San Rafael River. The last quarter of the hike, the canyons narrowed and there were several stretches where you had to swim across the pools. Luckily the water was fairly warm! It was a great day, with great people.
