Bold West #3 - Fun in the Southwest!
Posted by Nate at AAVE in : Bold West, General AAVE Trip BLOG , trackback
Hello Bold West #3 friends and family,
WOW! Bold West is an amazing trip! From the moment we all met at the airport we have been a chill, fun, efficient, awesome, awesome, group!! Four countries represented in our group. 400 miles in a van and 4 days so far with constant smiles, laughs and good music! I think this is the trip we have all been looking for all summer, but I don’t know if we all knew it!
We have taken gorgeous journeys in Zion National Park up to Angels Landing, and up through Hidden Canyon, and swimming at the Narrows, at Pa’rus trail, and at the Grotto have been successful, a blast, challenging, bonding, and HOT!
The swimming in the heat of the day keeps us cool! This group has put a new meaning for me to “work hard, play hard”, but the hikes and chores haven’t seemed like work, it’s just all fun all the time, and why not! We saw Kung Fu Panda last night to avoid the heat and rain, toured the Hoover Dam today, and have been eating some amazing meals cooked by our fantastic cook crews!
We’ve gotten through wondering if our tents will keep us dry at night (they will, they are great). We have gorged ourselves at the Circus Circus buffet and seen the lights of Vegas and are currently enjoying our first night here, but we’re use to our campsite and it feels like the trip is going so fast since we packed up this morning. We are looking forward to a day in Vegas tomorrow and then to head to Sequoia!!
Our days are otherwise filled with hacky sack, frisbee, cards, and cool treats, so know that we are all healthy, happy and well! We have so many fun stories and pictures to share already when we return from this trip which is one of the best trips we have lead because it really feels like we’re all on a team where everyone is helping each other out and getting to know each other genuinely!!
Thanks to everyone reading our blogs, we hope you are all well!
Enjoy, we are!
Nicole, Ben, and the amazing BW3 crew ![]()
