Ruins, Petroglyphs, Driving and Hiking - Dark Canyon to Moab
After leaving the Dark Canyon Primitive Area when I had to cut a trip short due to heavy duty sickness (see trip report here) back in May, I drove across to Blanding, then up to Moab for a couple of nights.
Made a stop at the bridge over White Canyon, drove up into Arch Canyon to see the ruins there, and walked to the Butler Wash Ruins viewpoint off Highway 95.
In Moab, I hiked up Negro Bill Canyon to the Morning Glory Arch, and later drove around to the top of the Gemini Bridges Road, and drove down that in my rental vehicle. I ended each evening at Miguel's Baja Grill. I could happily eat those fish tacos every.single.night.
Here, then, are a mish-mash of photos from those couple of days...

I wonder if the bolt collection at the top of Gemini Bridge is left over from "The Amazing Race". One of their stunts last year was the teams had to rappel from the side of the bridge.
Around my house the color of the jeep is referred to as "Ticket Bait Red".
Thanks for sharin'

looks like a fun trip.
Is it just me or does that rope seem a little thick on IMG_2223.jpg
