Still some snow left up high. |
This should be Harley Parking Only! |
Cool rest area in the Glen Canyon Rec Area. |
It won't be long and this will be a dry creek bed. |
But for now it adds to the peacefulness of the setting |
A little further down the canyon and I reach the current limit of Lake Powell |
The lake level is very low. |
Only the Colorado. All of the green area should be under water. |
I rode into Hite an old gold mining town, and then Uranium. I rode to the end of the boat ramp and took this pic. |
I rode to the top of the boat ramp and took a pic of the same sign. Yep, the lake is very low. |
You used to be able to motor boat around those rock features. |
I took a pic of this rock formation from the town of Hite. I think it is a ghost town now because of the low water levels in the lake. |
I haven't figured out how to capture the depth of a canyon with a camera yet. This is really deep. |
What would you name this butte? |
It is called Cheese Box Butte |
I looked and looked and looked but couldn't find the bridge. |
I asked a couple there if they could see it. They thought I was joking but they pointed it out to me. I took a close up and sure enough! |
No way could I hike to this one. |
The way this canyon is carved makes one want to be standing here during a good flash flood. |
Another hard to find one. |
This was the last one in the loop, and the best. |
Even I could find it. |
As high as it is on the left, the drop on the right is the same. |
Open range, I got startled by a couple on the side of the road that I didn't see until I could pet them. |
I caught this raven leaving his perch. I thought it was a baby calf until he took off. |
