Utah

Pit stop on the way to Salt Lake City

Leaving Yellowstone we take a long drive through the forests and fields of Idaho and into the deserts of Utah.

Castle Rock, South of Salt Lake City

After spending a night and picking up one more travel companion in Salt Lake City, we head south, to visit the Grand Canyon and to eventually reach Las Vegas which will mark the southern-most point of our trip.

But for now, after a long drive from Salt Lake City and having had bad luck in the search for the next campsite we stumble upon a secluded and peaceful campground, out of the way of the major roads. Here we spend the night and first half of the next day, using the opportunity to explore the surrounding cliffs and the weird, cone shaped rocks for which the campsite earned its name.

Nearby you can find ancient art, etched in the rust colored rock.
