Seining
What could be better…
A happy, bubbly river on a sunny day in beautiful Colorado. A hammock or a kayak- I could do either!

A New Day
-Eleanor Roosevelt
A promising start to the day…
…until the clouds engulfed the sunrise a few minutes after this shot.
Utah, Day 4
We decided to forego the sunrise this morning to have a longer day on the trail.
We headed out on Potash Road and the Shafer Swithchbacks Trail.
This balanced rock marks our left turn.
Can’t beat the vivid blue sky and fascinating rock formations.
Beautiful!
The trail took us above the Colorado River.
We were 1,000 feet above the river.
Crazy rock formations
The Shafer Switchbacks we drove- and this is just a beginner level trail, a mere bunny slope.
The trail ended near the entrance to the Island in the Sky unit of Canyonlands National Park. This is the view under Mesa Arch.
We saw just 2 other vehicles on the trail, but the Park was crowded. It was difficult to get a shot of the arch without including people.
After leaving the Park we did part of the Mineral Point Trail, which overlooks the Green River, then called it a day. Tomorrow we will move to a new location,
Immature Eagle-an almost spectacular shot
I caught this young eagle on take off- he caught me by surprise which is why I missed his wings! Arrrgh!
He did pose nicely before taking off! We got within 15 feet of him in our little boat.
