The destination was supposed to be Capital Reef this weekend, but some event caused all the motels to be sold out, so some quick last minute planning on Kathy's part sent us a little further west to Escalante where we grabbed a cabin for two nights, making it our base of operations for a whirlwind weekend tour of Southcentral Utah. Sat. we did Escalante State Park, hiking in the petrified forest where the wildflowers were at their peak. Later that day we also did Kodakchrome Basin and Bryce Canyon.
Sunday we devoted the morning soley to riding in Red Canyon on the Thunder Mountain trail. Temps were in the '50s and '60s all weekend with clouds here and there, but no major weather trouble. We can't wait to go back in Sept. after the kids are back in school. So here's just a few random pics from the weekend. Enjoy
