Colorado/Utah 1996- mostly Utah!

to some pictures of Colorado's longest cave- in the Cave Gallery...

Near Moab, Utah

Theresa Carbrey at Butler Wash- a friend of ours took us to this site, which is actually a BLM scenic overlook, inaccessable at first glance. We know the way now.

Anasazi kitchen at Butler Wash- Utah. The ceiling is black from accumulated soot, and the worn grooves in the lower right are metate marks from grinding corn!

Hal Canyon- Colorado River, Utah. We camped at a roadside pull-off; Any morning that you see something like this is a good one!

In the Fiery Furnace- Arches National Park, Utah. This area is so maze-like that the Park Service allows only ranger-guided trips; it might be 1 mile by 2 miles, but they used to have a fatality in there almost yearly.

A microcosm in a pool of water- Fiery Furnace. The tracks are from the movement of water-striders.

We weren't alone in the canyon, either!
