Southern Grand Staircase-Escalante NM

By Jen.

Dates: 12/04/2020 to 12/06/2020

We drove to Kanab to try and win the lottery for the Wave, a cool hike that requires a permit, but were unsuccessful, so we did a couple of hikes in the area instead.

This place had petroglyphs.

And has naturally-decorated abstract art.


The next day, we went down Buckskin Gulch.

This is why you don’t come down here when it rains!
