*Hiked to Hickman Natural Bridge
*Drove down the Scenic Drive (10 miles along the west face of the Reef)
*Drove to the end of Capitol Wash, then hiked a mile or so into the wash to see some more petroglyphs and also what they call the Pioneer Registry
*Hiked half of Grand Wash and then drove around to the other end to pick up Brian and Michael who hiked all the way through.
*Hiked to Sunset Point to see the sunset on the west side of the reef.
*Enjoyed:
The clear Utah-blue sky
The red cliffs
The yellow leaves (especially whole mountain-sides of Aspen–best near Koosharem)
Some massive old cottonwood trees
100s of deer
The isolation and stillness
Ancient fruit trees
Good conversations with Michael and Brian.
Lunch at Café Diablo (SW cuisine-#1 rated restaurant in Torrey, out of 12)
Hamburgers at Slacker’s Burger Joint (#2 rated restaurant out of 12)
Finding out I could still camp and hike (well, while taking lots of rest stops)
