GOBLIN VALLY

click on the pictures to make them bigger. I hiked a half mile thur the goblins to find a cache hidden by the park for their 25th anniversary. So far I have found them at 3 state parks. Tthe dry clean air makes for great pictures.

LITTLE WILD HORSE CANYON

This is a first for us, hiking in a slot canyon is very queit yet if you say something sometimes it echos. I hadto turn side ways acouple times. We did go about a mile and half in to find a geocache that was hiden there. Would like to go back and do it again when it is cooler.

GREEN RIVER STATE PARK

What can I say but we are having a good time here and the work is fun. FREE golf and cart which we both like.

GOGBLIN VALLEY STATE PARK

GOGBLIN VALLEY is a fun place to visit. Every rock formation looks like something or someone. You can click on the pictures to make them bigger. Do you see the one called 3 sisters?? the campground is in the bottom right.

Yes that is Ernie playing in the green river.

Collages from the Geyser

First picture is mineral build ups from the geyser. all the water flows down into the Green river. One thing we read said it put 30 punds of salt into the river each time it goes off.
The second picture is the same mineral that builts up on dishes in the diswasher
There thisd is the flow area.



The fourth picture is of desert mountain sheep that live in this area.

The brown water is the green river. The mineral build up around the geyser is very pretty when wet. even the mud pot was pretty!!

CRYSTAL GEYSER

The geyser is just 10 miles south of the town of Green River, UT. We have been here 2 other times but the geyser never went off sso this time we decided to stay until it did go off. We got here about 10:30am and nothing was happening. Shortly afternoon the mud pot next to the geyser started making noise and at 2:30pm it blew really hig for the first time and for the next 5 hours the geyser would blow for about 5 mins. and the the mud pot would bubble for 5 mins. They went back and forth like that for 5 hours. What a sight to see. This is one of the largest cold water geysers. When we got up at 6:30 am it was active again but not much CO2 but alot more H2o. This is a Earthcache and the first cache I ever found is only about 500 ft away. Some girls came down the river on on rafts and canoes and they had a great time playing in the water.

Canyonlands National park

We camped at Island in the sky at Canyonlands. I rode my bike from one interesting vista to the next. I would like to go back and visit the Needles and maize parts of Canyonlands

This lizard is the wildest thing we saw. We could go back and spend 3 weeks exploring. Such a beautiful place to be.

Mesa verde

We spent 3 days exploring Mesa Verde. The guides had us climbing ladders, hiking paths
going in tunnels so we reallly got to see how the ancient people lived..

LAGO DE PATZCUARO

The town has mostly cobble stone streets with topes so we drive very slowly. One couple we know hit a tope last year in their motor home and broke the towe hitch off and also busted the frame on the motor home. We just drove up the east side of the lake this day to Tzintzuntzan.
