Utah Adventures

I am going to let a handful of pictures show what we did for over a week while we camped between Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon National Park. Fantastic places to visit and scenery to experience!

Circleville, Utah - Butch Cassidy's childhood home.  His parents
were Mormon and he was the first of 13 children.  Serious doubts
have been raised as to whether or not he died in Bolivia.  His family
said he visited them many times after 1908, the year he was
supposedly shot to death.

Yes, that's a white tail deer and, yes, that is snow/frozen rain.  This
was taken on a drive of Hwy 14 over the mountains to Cedar City, UT.

Zion National Park - a little chipmunk who knew how to pose and
beg for snacks.  He gave me this pitiful look while I was eating
a granola bar.  Didn't work - I ate the whole thing and shared none!

Bryce Canyon - the "amphitheatre"

Another view of a formation in Bryce Canyon



Bryce Canyon again



Zion National Park - a bit grainy photo - we were fortunate to see
some long horn sheep.  There was a whole herd of them a ways
back from the road, roaming around on the rocks.

Zion National Park - some of beautiful flowers that were blooming

Zion National Park - this picture was taken from
up the top of the switchback roads right after
we exited the 1+ mile tunnel.  We still had to
continue driving down and eventually ended up
on that tiny road at the bottom.

Zion - this mountain is right at the entrance to the East Gate.  It's
significant because it's very common to see the wind striations go left
and right but very rare to have the vertical striations.  It was a huge
rock formation - this picture doesn't do it justice!
