Red Rocks Everywhere

 

Utah has a way of making you feel like you landed on another planet.

Red cliffs, red canyons, red dirt, giant sandstone walls, and strange rock formations seem to stretch in every direction. Around places like Moab and southern Utah, the scenery changes fast, but the color theme stays pretty consistent: red.

Driving the van through this landscape is hard to beat. I can head down a dirt road, find a quiet spot surrounded by sandstone, set up camp, and still have everything I need onboard.

Of course, Utah’s red dirt also ends up everywhere.

On the floor. On my shoes. In the van.

Probably in places red dirt should not physically be able to reach.

Still, waking up surrounded by glowing red cliffs makes the cleanup worth it.

Some places you visit.

Utah feels like a place you just keep wandering through.
