In case you haven't noticed, I love the scenery of southern Utah. We are here for a few days of recreation after spending time in SLC visiting the grands (kids).
Cottonwood
Canyon in the U.S. state of Utah is a water-carved canyon that has eroded along
weak locations in the Earth's crust at the joins between major geological
regions. To the east are the lower steps of the Grand Staircase, which is not
visible from the road and to the north is the Kaiparowits Plateau.
A drive through Cottonwood Canyon reveals a shifting
landscape of open wilderness, rock formations, and rugged canyon. The unpaved
Cottonwood Canyon Road, which winds through the canyon along Cottonwood Wash
for most of the way, cuts a path through this remote region of the Grand
Staircase Escalante National Monument.
