It's that time of year again where the Robles men take off for their yearly man trip to Black River. Three days of sleeping in the wild, no cell phone service, time to fish all day, and no wives. Michael, Joe, Daniel, Jacob, David and Brent were the lucky men to make it on this year's trip. They went from June 2nd through June 4th.
Once the men made it as far as the truck would take them, Daniel started to lead the group in calisthenics so they would be warmed up for the long hike down to the river.

Michael joined in on the warm-up routine.

Everyone else stood around and laughed at them :)

It was a treacherous hike down the canyon. Taking a break in the shade was a must.

No, Joe is not going the bathroom by this tree, it is just the only spot he could find to rest his weary legs.

When they made it to their camping location, a cow was nearby keeping an eye on them.

Finally at the campsite.

Brent was happy with his catch. It's a pretty good size fish. This would make a yummy lunch, dinner and breakfast.

After thinking about how much work it would be to clean this big fish, Brent released it back into the river. Brent says it was a great trip and fun to get away for a while. On the hike out, they ran into a rattle snake. Other than that, there wasn't much danger where they were at.
