October 10, 2019 Trip Report

Story

I've been to Green River at least a dozen times, but it's usually either really early in the morning or late in the evening. I had to be in Green River for a work meeting in the afternoon, and we were going canyoneering later that evening, so I visited the River History Museum while waiting to meet up with the rest of the group. The museum was a little smaller than I expected, but it was well done and interesting. I wandered the gift shop and bought a souvenir magnet for the museum as well as a couple for the Swell and other nearby areas we've been to.
