Blue Johns - Here's to Aron Rolsten

One of our trips was through the Main Fork of Blue Johns Canyon. We went with some friends who go every year around the time Aron Rolsten went, and hike the same trail he did. It was a very picturesque canyon! The first 4 or 5 miles was in the canyon, and the last 7 miles was in pure sand, that part was not very fun, but it was all worth it!For those who don't know, Aron Rolsten went into this canyon by himself and got his armed pinned to the canyon wall by a boulder. After being stuck there for six days, he cut his own arm off, finished the canyon, rappelled the 80 foot drop, and then hiked in the sand for 3 or 4 miles before being rescued!
