Without a timed entry pass, people can enter the park before 7:00am. So, we got there by 5:45am. The view was stunning with the sun rising behind the landscape. On […]

While traveling through Arizona and into Utah, we have seen a lot of deserts. I keep finding myself singing the song “A horse with no name”. Now I understand that song completely!
