Goosenecks State Park, Crossing the Rockies

Go Back
Written by: Dawn | Posted on: | Category: Destinations

Our time in the west was drawing to a close. After a night at beautiful Lone Rock Beach NP Campground at Lake Powell in Utah, we drove through Monument Valley and visited Goosenecks State Park. Unfortunately it was rainy as we drove by Monument Valley. I'm sure it must be much more impressive than what we saw! Goosenecks was an unexpected surprise. Formed by the San Juan River for over 300 million years, it winds back and forth for 180 degrees around the park.

Ken and Tammy - so glad you found us online! It really was great being neighbors and maybe the next time we meet at Prairie Creek we'll have less smoke to contend with. Enjoy your travels!!

Prairie Creek
Dawn & Check - great to meet you guys & be neighbors in the middle of no where!  Too bad about the smoke in the Sawtooths. Our shared campsite on Prairie Creek was a good one, and we ended hiking up Prairie Creek to Minor Lake (with all the Creek crossings) on our last day. Beautiful!

am I done flying?
I am behind reading your log..am I?  Any way, checking the calendar regularly, I guess I forgot the log.  So here I am, June 12 2020, updating my reading and feeling silly.

Just moved around your site a bit and after, reading about your decision to move on, I and babbo too (he is now sculpting bears in Pietrasanta), wish you the best of times traveling, resting, and free.

General Commenting Instructions
I've replaced the Disqus commenting forum with this simplified way to leave comments. It's not as fancy as Disqus so comments won't be specific to each blog entry, but instead will show every comment submitted. The big advantage is that no one will need to sign up for Disqus to be able to comment.

So feel free to leave comments!
