I stopped at this cliff to photograph some hieroglyphs. I couldn't see them, but this nice guy showed me where they were so I pointed the camera there. Nothing! I did get this guy riding the thermals.

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.
