BBQ/NATIONAL PARK TOUR DAYS #10/6 “Risking my life to show you Canyonlands”

Today was our day to explore Canyonlands National Park.  It is about 30 miles from the town of Moab, Utah (Arches National Park is only about 5 miles away from Moab).  Canyonlands, as the name would imply, is famous for it’s deep canyons that have been etched out by the rivers in this area most notably the Colorado River.

I hope you appreciate the great personal risk I go through in order to provide you with photos of these areas.  I walked all over this park and put myself at great risk being at the canyon edge in order to get the right photo.  Here are a few.

These are just a few of the photos I took (at great personal risk) to satisfy the insatiable appetite of my audience.  I had to drag along a very reluctant Patrice looking for the right photo.

I hope you are satisfied.  Let’s see some comments on the blog!   Just a very few are showing me their love.

Thanks all until tomorrow.

This is Patrice now, Robert has left his computer.  Don’t you believe a word from that man. He wouldn’t go a step near the edge of these cliffs.  Look at this candid photo I took of him.

And check out this photo I took.

He is so scared of heights he has his eyes closed while taking this photo.

And that nonsense about him dragging me around?  Well we only walked about 10,000 steps today so I am off to the fitness center to get in a little more of a work out.  Meanwhile look at your self-proclaimed warrior.
