Jon and I set out from camp with the goal of exploring a couple of valleys on our way to catch a glimpse of the Paria from high above. While chilly late-April storms with rain, snow, hail, and graupel should be appreciated here in the desert, the only downside is that the light on this otherwise colorful landscape was a bit tempered and flat. Despite the less-dynamic photo captures, this was a pure delightful wonderland of geology surprises around every bend.

One could wander this plateau for months and encounter things that few have seen. I highly recommend exploring here!
