Can you believe that in the 11 years that I have lived in Pittsburgh, I have never been to Mt. Washington to see the sun rise over the city? Yesterday I woke up early and could not go back to sleep, so I just headed that way instead, and was rewarded with a pretty start to my day.
Despite its less than attractive name, Dead Horse Point State Park in Utah has off-the-charts views. We camped at both the campgrounds (for lack of a four-day block at either) and I am really glad we did. It allowed me to get some sunrise shots.
The story goes that wild horses were rounded up on the point. The best ones were taken, leaving the rest corralled, in view of the Colorado River below but without access to any water, so they died.
You know who's not going to go without? The ravens. They kept watch over the dumpsters and we were warned to make sure what we deposited was entirely under the lid or the ravens would liberate it. I also had the pleasure of seeing several desert cottontail rabbits and one jack rabbit. I would have gotten a photo, but, don't you know, he was too fast for me.
After camping in the dry heat at Mesa Verde, we were ready for a change of scenery, so we drove up into the mountains, without much of a plan.
We lucked out to get a spot at Cayton Campground in the San Juan Mountains. It was refreshingly lush, with a stream running just behind our campsite, perfect for splashing around in.
This usually busy site was very quiet since it had just recently reopened after forest fires.
