Canyonlands - Island in the sky

Today's National Park was Canyonlands. It's huge and the area I was in was called Island in the sky! It's a big mesa linked only by a small 'neck' otherwise it would be an 'island'.

It was a busy day and it was nice to get some hiking done. I also learnt that the dirt is alive!Baca selengkapnya
