"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

From Black Ridge Road...plusSpooked by a ranger's description of how bad the last 2.4 miles of the black ridge road was, I parked my rental SUV and walked the road north to the trailhead and back, adding 5 miles to the 6 mile arch hikes. An incomparable series of arches.
I think I could have made it at least a mile down the road...

lovely hikeLovely hike with Duchess. Start at Pollock Bench Trailhead, about 7 miles one way. Crossing many little canyons along the way, very scenic.

Great hikeDid it as a 14 mile out and back - just couldn't see climbing up through that arch. Great arches and views.

Lovely little semi-secretThis was a nice break-away from the crowds at Colorado National Monument.

rappellingIt's not Moab, but with the weather that weekend we decided just do some nearby rappelling.
