can we just not fling marshmallows at each other? can we just not fling marshmallows at each other?

i feel like I should be telling this to 5th graders but im talking to the adults 😱🤣

i learned on my first float down the salt river 10 YEARS AGO that people make these PVC marshmallow shooters and shoot marshmallows at each other, leaving tons of marshmallows floating along the shore.

how about not ok, let’s try to leave no trace. no trash, no food scraps, no beer cans. if you feel like doing something fun, how about a squirt gun? 💦💧

go enjoy the salt river but can you just not throw marshmallows around like barbarians, ok?
it’s that time of year- time to climb the talles it’s that time of year- time to climb the tallest mountain in arizona!!

📍humphreys peak, flagstaff at 12,633 ft

it’s a real butt kicker let me tell you but I’d do it over & over again! highly recommend staying in flagstaff the night before to limit going from 1,000 elevation in the valley to 12,000 in a few hours.

budget your whole day for this hike, and of course one of the best parts is finishing & enjoying a yummy meal!!

comment “Humphreys Peak” for my blog post guiding you through the whole hike!
