This is the story of Alan Gegax's first backpacking experience, told by him. It was supposed to be a beautiful and tranquil experience on the West Rim of Zion National Park, but it all went horribly wrong. This story has been published in Desert Companion magazine, told on G.O. Get Outside, and has been retold a hundred times. Here in the Scafachiverse, Alan tells the tale in his own words, with no limits and no censorship. It's one hell of a ride.
Alan Gegax is an admin for the EA Sports College Football Headquarters Facebook group, with over 70,000 members; he is the Chief of VegasHikers, a hiking group in Las Vegas with over 28,000 members; and he is the host of Classes of Mail, a podcast about the US Postal Service, with over 150,000 downloads.
