10-6-2016 Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Utah


We left the Bryce Canyon area this morning and took Utah Scenic Byway 12 through the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.  It is an astonishing mix of ancient seabed, desert, canyons, forests, and mountains rising to 9,600 feet above sea-level.















We stopped at the Anasazi State Park Museum near Boulder, Utah.  The park includes an excavated pueblo in addition to a pit house.


Real cowboys rounding up real cows.

    All right--cowboys. The roads all look so empty and in the scenic shots there aren't any people, I got to thinking that you two are all alone out there. Not like the crowded Chicago area. Just Anne, Jim, and super spectacular rocks.
