Day fifty Four in moab, utah

Moab is a two night stay, we did 433 kms to get here so didn’t get here till after 7.00 pm yesterday, today was a day of looking around what there is to see around Moab. First stop was out to Dead Horse Point, to my mind, a better view than the Grand Canyon so a must see if visiting Moab. Don,t let anyone tell you Arches National Park is the best scenery, Dead Horse point kicks some serious arse in that regard. First pics below are at Dead Horse Point.

Couple miles away around the corner is Canyonlands National Park and another couple of cool overlooks, but the Grand View point at Canyonlands cannot beat Dead Horse Point. Check them both out though, best scenery in Utah.

Mark and Tracey headed off after that to look at Arches as they had not been there before. Red and I decided to have a wee ride down the Shafer Canyon road opposite the visitor center at Canyonlands. Fair to say this would be the hairiest road I have ever ridden, but it has to be done while we,re there eh.

By the time we got back to Moab it was 2.30 and 40 degrees so apart from the swimming pool and a bud light there was not much motivation to be outside anytime soon. Rest of the afternoon off.
