    Before

    The Cobra, a famous climbing route and Fisher Tower classic, fell today near Moab, UT. It is believed that a big storm that had rolled through the area must have brought it down.

    After

    Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.
