High Mesa

The Buttes

The walls of these buttes are studded with many smaller rocks... probably would be an easy climb.

Pointedly

Many points

That rock has a name... Chimney Rock. with Cimarron Ridge to the right

Dunsinane Mountain and Precipice Peak

Chimney Rock

Cimarron Ridge

Joe Davis Canyon on Highway 141 in Colorado. Those rocks are big. On the ridge to the right one of the upper strata is thick and very strong, The underlaying strata is friable & erodes quickly undermining the hefty layer... Eventually these huge chunks break off and roll down the slope... None while I was watching... but I was ready for it!

More Big Rocks

That triangle shaped rock is HUGE house-sized, even.

Wheel Cover

Just a fancy wheel cover busted up in the dirt.


A Drive About
A Layover Day in Buena Vista
Sep 03, 2016
Sometimes it's good to stop. All of those places you've been driving through... Well. People live there... Yes, they spend weeks at a time in one place... Years even, I hear tell. So if you want to feel like a real local, you have to spend at least a day in one place. I decided to settle down in Buena Vista it seemed like a nice place to call home.
Up a Winding Road and Crossing the Divide

I crossed the Continental Divide just to the northwest of Fitzpatrick Peak on a little dirt track called forest road 267 that runs between St. Elmo & Tincup, Colorado.

I headed west into Manti-La Sal National Forest, there was a long, twisty route that was just about what I was looking for. Manti-La Sal National Forest, is a well-kept secret and the locals want to keep it that way. It offeres a wide variety of terrain from jush forests to arid canyon lands. One ot the swell bits is the Dark Canyon Wilderness, still a largely unexplored area.
A Utah Loop
Sep 05, 2016
The Distance from Blanding, Utah to Bluff Utah is only about 25 miles but if you plan carefully you can make it in 200. I had planned carefully... I had planned to be responsible, put in a day and and drive from Blanding to Torrey. After all The previous day I had driven 120 miles and landed 21 miles from my starting point... I needed to make "progress" gol darn it! and 175 miles farther down the road was furthering my cause. I was less than two blocks down the road when I saw a sign that read "Mexican Hat 50 miles."
