Canyonlands 3/10

DSC01631

So, from Thursday eve to Saturday eve we’ve logged-in 10 hours of driving, visited 4 different spots, and have another destination and 5 hours of driving ahead of us.  Sunday was a sleep-in day in Moab and the views from our lodging were pretty relaxing.  DSC01597 DSC01596

There are two things to know about Canyonlands.  1.  It is in the Middle of Nowhere!  2.  It is HUGE!!!  Moab, itself is in the Middle of Nowhere, but luckily Arches NP is just outside of town.  Canyonlands, on the other hand, is quite a drive.  Either entrance to Canyonlands is a 30-40 miles North or South of Moab.  Once in the Park, there is plenty more driving.  But it is all worth it.

If you go to Canyonlands, be careful not to hit the free-range cattle!

And Definitely Check Out the Grand View Point: (Drive-up)IMAG0373 DSC01632Again, with a 4-hour drive to SLC, with a flight to catch in the AM, hiking options were limited.  That being said it was a busy but good weekend.  Coming-up will be Sunny days in Salt Lake City resorts and hopefully snowy days to follow in Jackson Hole!  Such is Life!DSC01620
