It is time for us to start heading Southwest again. The geological landscape of Utah's National Parks are just too grand for words... All I know how to say is... WOW....
The 'WOW' factor is unbelievable... So, as not to bore you with my continous WOW... oh my... WOW.... look at that.... WOW.... ad nauseum... I'm going to select a few of our favorite pics & experiences from all the national monuments, national parks and national recreation areas we visited on our way back to San Diego, CA. This is our bi-annual trek to make sure that Allan's back is up to snuff.
OK, here's our story:

OK, here's our story:
Natural Bridges National Monument | But it was truly worth it...... Sipapu is a Hopi word meaning: 'Place of Emergence' |
Next.. we drove through the Glen Canyon Nat'l Recreation area, home of Lake Powell,
then through the Capital Reef National Park and the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Park just to find the Mormon Pioneer Expedition Trail - The Hole in the Rock Trail
Next, onward to Bryce National Park....
Not all in 1 day though... that would be impossible.
Here is a compilation of all those beautiful sites.... check it out!
Red Canyon & Zion | First we had to go through 2 tunnels which were part of the Red Canyons, and if that was not amazing enough, we had to be escorted in Zion since Gertrude is too chubby to go through the Zion tunnels by herself..... :-) |
