But our adventure got unexpectedly complex. After we had been napping and lounging with shoes off at the very nice trailhead/camping area for several hours I decided to re-read our email to Marta and Bert to confirm the pick-up time. I had the time right but had written Thursday and today is Wednesday! Oh no! We don't have 24 hours of water, especially with 100* heat. Nobody is at the trailhead so we decided to walk out to the road to increase our chances of help.

We walked on the road for less than a mile when a BLM Ranger drove up, stopped to ask what we were doing. We went over options again, she offered water. We all decided that she should drop us off at another trailhead with more of activity.

Then Marta and Bert drove up (Jeep loaded with water, drinks, fruit and sandwiches)! They knew the email was wrong! We drove back for finish photos and are now in Kanab, UT. M&B just got the Trail Angel Oscar! Thank you a million times M&B.

The next morning we drove to St George, UT and caught a shuttle to the Las Vegas airport. The shuttle costs $20 apiece but was very convenient.
