Southern Utah - September 2016

[Bosque Bill]

There is a new adventure posted on Bosque Bill's Backroads travel & camping blog. Although the trip was only a week long, I took so many photos that I broke it into four posts. Each post includes links to the previous/next post.

Remember: Click on the photos to open larger versions in a light-box format - Highly recommended.

Great trip report Bill and thank you for taking us along. You certainly covered a lot of ground. This is one of my favorite areas for exploration, unfortunately I have been to only a few of those places over the past several years. I need to upgrade my truck before launching a full blown expedition of the area.

Thanks again

Another great report, thanks! We are just back from exploring areas nearby- fun to see other places we could have ventured. The geology of Utah is just amazing. Next time...

Excellent trip report Bill.

I was there at the same time as you and saw what you did, but I'll admit that your pictures are much better than mine. Great to see what a good photographer can do.
