The Four Corners (CANU) for Spring Break

Post by David »

This year we went to southern Utah again for Spring Break. It was early this year and the weather was cold. The trip had a fair bit of driving but it went quickly thanks to an audio book and AM talk radio (that's real entertainment!).

We visited natural bridges, the valley of the gods (little monument valley), mesa verde, the four corners, and hovenweep (ute indian for abandoned village).

I hope you enjoy the photos :-)

Mesa Blanca.  White out at the entry and a treacherous drive into the park (3-inches of fresh snow made it an unusual day)

Dave, It sure looks like you had a good trip, the weather looked pretty similar to the time we went there as kids, I can remember it was freezing!
