Canyonlands and Dead Horse Point State Park


We went to Canyonlands National Park. We were comparing it to the Grand Canyon and I heard other people talking in different languages and referring to the Grand Canyon. We were going to camp in the back country but decided against it because only 2 sites were booked (we figured it probably wasn't the best time of year to camp) and it is hotter in the canyon that on the rim.

We also stop at Dead Horse Point State Park it has a very dramatic view of the Colorado River from 2000 feet down sheer cliffs, Defiantly one of the top ten places in my book. The name is a little sad, there are different ledgends to why it got it's name ....
