Escalante

I have never done this hike and I want to go back. Escalante is one of the most spectacular areas I've seen. A far cry from Zion and Bryce (despite combining aspects of both), I found it far more desolate and contemplative than its counterparts. This is, of course, the home to the legend of Everett Ruess, and I understand a little more why someone would want to get lost in this part of the country.


Calf Creek Falls


That water was no more than 50 degrees


The Gollum on the side of the rock.


The mouth.
