We’re busy adding trip reports to our new website DoingMiles. This latest addition, an 11 day backpacking trip down the Escalante River, was not previously published on BPL forums. It’s a good one. Enjoy

Great pictures! How did you treat your water? Was it as silty as other areas in the nearby? I think that I just added a new trip to my bucket list.
Jon, we’ve been using Aqua Mira for years to treat water. We use springs, seeps and potholes, and have not yet found it necessary to use a silty source. We like the process of finding routes to the rim, and one of the benefits of that activity is access to potholes.
I hope to someday complete this stretch either on foot or by packraft. Thank you for further inspiration, and some great beta.
