Rolling into Monument Valley
Monument Valley
Mexican Hat rock
A wall of rock. on Highway 261. There looked no way up...
...but there was...
...though it was a bit of a hairy route
It was some view at the top
Do look down - Above the Valley of the Gods
Twisted tree
Natural Bridges Park - it wasn't all about the bridges...
...the rest of the park was pretty impressive...
...but the bridges stole the show (Sipapu Bridge)
Tunnel vision
Another arch somewhere on the way to Moab
Heading towards another wall of rock...
...no way up this time...
...just straight through
The fun was about to start...
...all I had to do was follow the white lines...
...so I followed them...
...up the rock...
...down the rock...
...and up some more...
...and around...
...the beautiful little rock gardens...
...along the banks of the Colorado...
...and I was grinning all the way round
Going back I took a brief detour to the Four Corners monument...
...for a close up look
The sun was setting...
...then the dust storm rolled in...
...bringing my Slickrock adventure to a truely spectacular end
