We had another beautiful day. It got warm as the day went on but we enjoyed ourselves.
We did a couple short walks to see some arches but there is so much more to explore that we didn't have time for.
We did the shorter/easier hike to take a look at this famous arch. Again, being scared of heights, but working on it, lessens where we can hike. Also, knowing I have to ride after hiking I try not to completely ware myself out. I have, in the past, gotten too tired to get my bike up to ride... So I try to stay aware of those types of things.
After Arches we headed thru Moab, wandered around a bit and down to Monticello where there was suppose to be a free spot to camp with electric. It was unfortunately closed so we spent the night at a gas station in town. We were exhausted and had to be up and out early to beat out the wind. It wasn't a bad evening and a quiet spot to sleep.
On my cross country move last year, I only got to spend a few hours at Arches that one night, but found it to be quite beautiful. I know what you mean - the fear of heights can limit me too - you've been to Zion, right? There, there are definitely some hikes I had to push myself on, and some parts of hikes I was like "nope, i'm done." Good of you to be cognizant of what you can do comfortably and what you cannot.
ReplyDeleteThese days, I find that after driving my car for just a few hours, I need to take a break, so i can only imagine how tiring it is to ride the bike with Tic Tac in tow. Thank you for the beautiful photos!
