  • Watson Falls, Umpqua National Forest, Oregon

    Jump

  • Hell yeah! I forgot all about that one! Saw it well over a decade ago (don't think I have any photos) when I first moved to Oregon. Next time I pass through, I'll have to swing back by there. Thanks!

  • Fairyland Loop Trail, Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah

    Jump

  • Haha, yeah compatible travel partners is key! Part of why I enjoy solo traveling so much, get to set my own schedule. Rest? That's for post-vacation!

  • Fairyland Loop Trail, Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah

    Jump

  • Oh cool, I'll have to add that to the list! Looks like some good trails there.

  • Cassidy Arch via Frying Pan Trail Capital Reef National Park, Utah

    Jump

  • Those photos look great! I’m planning on that shorter hike to Cassidy next time I get there as well to see a different approach up the canyon. Yeah, frying pan would be tough in the summer heat unless you go early.

    Jump

  • Thanks!.. Oh cool! I haven't done that one yet, but I'm hoping to get back there early next year and that is one of the one's I'd like to do while there, along with a few others.

  • Sunset Point and Goosenecks Overlook, Capital Reef National Park, Utah

    Jump

  • If if you ever make it out to that area, definitely try to get to Capital Reef. It's less known than the other nearby National Parks, and is one of the most underrated parks in the country. Just filled with a variety of geological formations.

    Jump

  • Absolutely, such a great mix of everything there. Amazing that it is virtually unknown to most people.

  • Shafer Canyon Overlook, Canyonlands National Park-Island in the Sky, Utah

    Jump

  • Yeah, it being situated right in the middle of the U really lets you see it all, and the road accentuates the contours so well.

    Jump

  • It looks so fun, but not in my rear wheel drive only Transit haha.. Definitely not a place you want to pull the try and see approach.

  • Mesa Arch Trail, Canyonlands National Park-Islands in the Sky, Utah

    Jump

  • Yeah, it was kinda crazy how as everything receded it exposed just how much of a drop off there actually was!

  • Mesa Arch Trail, Canyonlands National Park-Islands in the Sky, Utah

    Jump

  • So much of the landscape out there has the appearance of being sculpted out of clay which, in a way, it really was.

  • Druid Arch Trail, Canyonlands National Park-The Needles, Utah

  • Druid Arch Trail, Canyonlands National Park-The Needles, Utah

    Jump

  • Thanks, that’s very kind!

  • Chesler Park Trail, Canyonlands National Park- The Needles District, Utah

    Jump

  • Yeah, this is definitely up there as one of my favorites. I just love the way it all changes perspective constantly based on where you are on the trail and what height you are at. Just a really mind-blowing adventure.

  • Newspaper Rock, Bears Ears National Monument, Utah

    Jump

  • Yeah, it does seem to have some directional elements among all the noise.

  • Newspaper Rock, Bears Ears National Monument, Utah

    Jump

  • Oh wow, always thought that claw was a sixth one. I knew about pandas having the pseudo-thumb that evolved from their wrist but could never figure out how they didn’t have seven if other bears already had six. I guess that’s how haha. Thanks for the info!

  • Newspaper Rock, Bears Ears National Monument, Utah

    Jump

  • That’s what I thought they looked like as well, but the only north american ones that I am aware of are in Olympic national park in Washington. They certainly wouldn’t be where this is, there are barely any trees haha.

  • Landscape Arch, Double O Arch Trail, Arches National Park, Utah

    Jump

  • Thanks for that, was super informative. I always have enough wonder with a third of the country being a massive inland sea, adding that a large inlet of hyper saline is would domino effect to all these arches is just wild.

  • Landscape Arch, Double O Arch Trail, Arches National Park, Utah

    Jump

  • After the big chunk fell off of Landscape arch in the 90s they put up a wooden fence that keeps you 100 ft or more from it, which is where I was standing when taking that photo for reference. All other arches in the park that have an opening of 3 ft or more are not allowed to be walked on, so probably not even the smaller of the Double O arches although it may be small enough.
