So This Happened Today
Instead of going to see “Mission Impossible: Fallout” during this “Mission Impossible: Roadtrip” we decided to act it out ourselves in Moab today. Scrambling, climbing, a free rappel from Cable Arch, and a rappel down into a slot canyon. Everyone rocked it. Make sure to click on ALL THREE photo galleries below!
