Lizzie and I atop Molas Pass (11,000 feet!) in The San Juan Mountains, Colorado.Tonight the road finds us in McDonald's in Moab, Utah, mooching on their free wi-fi. We've set up camp for the weekend along the banks of the Colorado River a few miles outside of town in a gorgeous red-rock canyon with steep walled cliffs.
We left Santa Fe yesterday morning and drove north into Colorado, over the San Juan mountains into Grand Junction, where we picked up Lizzie's little sister, Cayli. We explored Arches National Park briefly before sundown, and have a lot more exploring of the park to do tomorrow.
I'll keep this brief - the plan for the upcoming week is as follows: (We don't know exact dates, but here's a rough outline) - We'll be hitting Canyonlands National Park, Arches National Park, Mesa Verde National Park, Monument Valley, Capitol Reef National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Zion National Park, THE GRAND CANYON, and Las Vegas. That takes us through the next ten-eleven days. Many more pictures to come!
Hope everyone's summer is going great,
Tom
P.S. More pictures from the road!
Hey Tom! I hope everything's going well.
ReplyDeleteYou're trip sounds freaking amazing! Also, I think you'll have more than enough experience to become a park ranger after this trip so who knws maybe you're padding your resume a little with this trip =) We miss you and also your new photo is AWESOME. Utah seems beautiful!
