Moab
The town of Moab is some 10 miles south of Canyonlands and Arches NP and is a great centre for exploring this area. (See Map, PDF)
Arches
The topography of this National Park stretches the imagination and is small enough to appreciate in a full day. The array of pink sandstone becomes a vivid red at sunset and sunrise affording spectacular photography. (See Photos)
South to Mesa Verde
After spending 4 days exploring the area we continued south on Route 191 which continues to provide spectacular topography.
