Saturday, September 4
Well, we've back for awhile, so I thought it might be time to actually write something about our fabulous trip. As you all may know we started out on Saturday, September 4, first stop: Nine Mile Canyon. I have wanted to go up this canyon for awhile, but have felt a more urgent need to see it before the oil rigs ruin the petroglyphs.



It is worth a trip! It's always an interesting exercise of the imagination to try and figure out what some of the drawings mean and why did they take all the trouble to carve the picture into rock.






Anyway, that night was our first "boondocking" night with the Beast. We just pulled off on the side of a dirt road up Cottonwood Canyon and had the whole canyon to ourselves. We popped the top and camp was set up. Oh, camping in the Beast is nice!
