Another fantastic day near Moab.  While were getting ready to leave today for a hike, this guy was busy checking out the steps to our cabin.. it loooked like he was eating the salt that had been sprinkled there.. He satye there for a good half hour.. so we were sort of like captives, becsue we didnt  want to disturb him<\/p>\n\n\n\n

we headed down the mountian towards town.. even though its about 15 miles on a nearly empty road with spooky dropoffs and hairpin turns.. its now our nearly 15 mile nearly empty oad with spooky dropoffs and hairpin turn .. so its an easy, fun and scenic drive 

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our goal for today was to hike Fisher towers.. It had been suggested by our good friend Nate.. and it was probably the most amazing hike I’ve ever been on. The weather was perfect (mid 50’s).. . the scenery was unbelievable.. a the company was good too \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

we made the 5 mile hike in just about 3 miles.. the guide said it should have taken 4.

We then drove along the beautiful \u00a0Colorado River on the catle hill road.. gorgeous ! \u00a0We stopped In Moab to walk a few wonton blocks… touristy but Nice !

We found som lingering signs of the places importance to the early days of nuclear materials.. There’s a huge cleanup operation goign on now to clean up and safely store a bazillion gallons of old uranium mining waste .. Eeeeeek !
