Canyonlands

Canyonlands National Park, May 18, 2014

This was really just a side trip during our visit to Arches. This park is huge. There are three main areas…Island in the Sky on the north end, The Maze in the southwest portion, and The Needles in the southeast portion. From Arches, the closest entrance is the Island in the Sky area, so we did that. There is one main road that forks off in two directions where you can visit the different overlooks. It was a fairly low-key day, but we did do a bit of hiking while we were there, to see Upheaval Dome and Mesa Arch.
