The Long and (Very) Winding Road

Day 10: Canyonlands National Park, Utah

Shafer Trail Road drops down from the Grand View Point road at The Neck to the canyon floor below.

Some great switchbacks here.

I presume this is all a little ho-hum for you Jane
Wonderful shot! You are getting around! Fav

Well, I refuse to go on this trail because I am afraid of heights; however, let me tell you about one ranger's job. She packs her bicycle with food and camping gear and rides this trail for three straight days (it's 100 miles long). Her mission is to quietly approach campsites and make sure people have filled out their paperwork and paid their fees. Many of them haven't, and her only protection is her walky talky. She is so disarming that everyone just cooperates with her instead of arguing. Her body is pure muscle.

Great minds think alike. I got that same shot when I was at Cayonlands in April. Some awesome views from the mesa.
