Canyonlands

I thought I'd explain how the title of this blog came to be. No need to get too excited, it's not really that interesting.

I used to live in the four corners region of the United States. For those of you who aren't following, it's the point where Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona meet. You can drive out to the exact point and stand in all four states. It's called, creatively, The Four Corners National Monument.

Anyways, I lived in southwestern Colorado which was a four hour drive from Moab, Utah. Now in and around Moab we have some of the most amazing geography in the world. One of the most famous, and perhaps most photographed is Arches National Park. Best known for it's amazing red-rock arch formations. Well just dowm the road is Canyonlands National Park.

I've spent some time in both parks. Camping is allowed, and so the first morning I woke up in Canyonlnds, well, you'll just have to check it out for yourself.
