From Salt Lake City

After three days in Canyonlands we are back to a hotel here in Salt Lake City. We had two days of rain and bad weather for photographing. Canyonlands is a hard place to photograph due to the accessibility of everything. We had a big lightning storm last night and was forced to retreat to the car. When you are the highest point on the mountain, the tent is not the place to be!

After the storm let up, it was back to the tent and get some more sleep. There was a partly-cloudy sky and we had hoped to photograph from the green river overlook. As the sun came up the haze in the scene got worse. I finally just put the camera up and said "That's it for Utah!" and went back to camp and pack things up.
