Morning in Capitol Reef National Park. The two pictures, below, show some petroglyphs, about 1,000 years old. The figures are small, and are just above the line of boulders in the lower half of the photographs.







Leaving Capitol Reef, above, and coming into Moab, entrance to Arches National Park, below.

Below, this is called Park Avenue.







Below, this is known as the Delicate Arch.

Leaving Arches, we took Idaho 128 north and east to get back to I-70 and our hotel in Grand Junction, Colorado. This road follows the Colorado River as it snakes through eastern Utah. We saw only about ten other cars on this 80 mile drive. There are at least two dude rances operating in this valley.












At least half the photos on this post are by Ernie Conaway, who is also a fearless rock scrambler.
