Geo Journal Week #1 Spring Break Road Trippin'
This week was Spring Break. My teenage son is an avid fisherman. He is obsessed! My husband and I thought it would be fun to try Moab. Don't do Moab on Easter weekend unless you have a jeep. We now know every campground up and down the Colorado River is full on Easter weekend. While the fishing was not what my son had hoped for, we were able to see a lot of the states beautiful landscapes! We drove through Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, Bryce, Lake Powell, Escalante Grand Staircase, and many many other beautiful sites. The beautiful back road from Powell to Cedar City. How could I not look forward to this drive? I was fascinated by the rocks in the center seemed so solid and the sediment sloughed off in piles around the rock! I wondered if the rock that was remaining was stronger or younger. This was especially evident in Canyonlands. You could see huge boulders ready to fall off....
