Bluff Hiking weekend Dec. 2 - Dec. 6

We have many times travelled to Bluff, Utah for a taste of the canyon country, and will do so once again this December. Bluff is less than six hours from Los Alamos and, situated along the San Juan River, at a low altitude best suited for trips late or early in the season. Even in early December the average daily high is around 50 F. There are numerous places to hike and explore from Bluff, including the ruins and big views of Comb Ridge, the canyons accessible from Cedar Mesa, the canyon rim just north of Bluff itself, and farther afield to places like White Canyon. I have reserved a vacation rental in Bluff, the Adams house owned by the Recapture Lodge, for a four-night stay, arriving the evening of Wednesday December 2nd and leaving on Sunday the 6th, giving us 3 days to explore. I will be leading day outings every day. If the trip grows, folks can find their own motel or Airbnb lodgings, and join in the hikes and dinners. The Adams House has four bedrooms and two baths. The bathrooms will be shared; there is no master suite. If we fill the three bedrooms in the house, the cost per bedroom should be about $336, total for the weekend - we'll adjust depending on who we have. Unlike past trips, I am switching to a per room cost for simplicity. We will have dinners together in the house, including anyone who is in other lodging. There are almost no restaurants available in Bluff in December. Please contact Bill for information, to reserve a room in the house, or for advice on staying elsewhere in town. I hope you can join in the adventure. To reserve a slot, please get Bill a deposit of $336 per room; we will settle up as the trip end if there are any changes in the final cost.
