Twelve miles up Comb Wash and Snow Flats Road, I found a promontory overlooking the wide canyon.
From a camp like this I love clambering around on the slick rock ... it offers wide open views and its easy to go exploring.
And have I mentioned I LOVE the colors ?!?!?!
Another camper settled onto another nearby promontory. He quietly walked his little dog and then sat under a tree for ever so long. He seemed a decent sort. The next morning, when I emerged to photograph the spectacular dawn show, I noticed he was doing the same.
Later on I walked over to visit. Turns out Dominic contracts as a photographer with the US Geological Survey. They have old photos and sketches of particular places; they locate these spots and Dominic photographs them. Then the team is able to compare them and study the changes over time under varying conditions.
I WANT THAT JOB!!!!!
"...and it's easy to go exploring." Sometimes nature accommodates us humans by paving the ground.
