Last weekend the wife and I had a chance to take a quick trip to the Moab area. We were supposed to go down to the San Rafael Swell with the Wasatch Cruisers, but apparently I can't read and the club is not going to the swell until next weekend. So, we were all packed up and decided to head down to Arches National Park, Canyonlands National Park, and the Moab area. We wanted to try out our new Tepui RTT so we decided to try out a BLM campground up Kane Creek called the Ledges. It was great!
Someone mentioned that it was spring break time so we were a bit nervous about getting into Arches, but when we arrived Saturday afternoon we drove right in. The campground we stayed at was about half full and Canyonlands seemed pretty dead on Sunday also. We had a great time and the tent was stupid comfortable! It was a pain to set up the first time, but should get easier now that I know what I am doing.
This was kind of a scouting trip for us to see if there was enough to do in the parks to warrant a full weekend at each. I think we will be taking another long weekend back in the near future. Here are a few pics:
