Changes in plans

The Thanksgiving storm has changed our travel plans. Staying home for the holiday and no one coming to visit. Sometimes the mountains make a large barrier.

Oh ya...the orange color shows a blizzard warning for Wednesday.

Another Canyon Adventure Weekend

The weather was beautiful and it is still hunting season in the mountains so we decided to visit some of our favorite terrain, the canyons of SE Utah! As usual, we pick a canyon, descend and then see what we see. There are so many archeology sites it is difficult to not see something.



An ancient high rise. You can see the roof supports of an ancient dwelling that was seriously difficult to enter... so we didn't even try.
A few wildflowers were still blooming in some of the more protected parts of the canyon.
Always evidence that we were not the first ones down this way.
There were lots of pools left over from the floods of last month. Here a reflection of the canyon wall reflected in the water.
