On the road again... (109_0186)
Headed north from Natural Bridges N. P. through the Indian Creek Recreational Area on the way to the Needles District of Canyonlands from Natural Bridges N. P.
This photo was captured on the only rainy day of our vacation. We started our day at the Natural Bridges National Monument in Utah. The rain was intermittent but cleared later in the morning and we were even treated to a spectacular rainbow.
Natural Bridges includes three large rock bridges viewable from the roadside but best visited by hiking down into the lower levels of the park. Because it was wet and rainy and the slickrock was, well, slick, we decided to stick to the vicinity of the roadside parking areas and skipped hiking down towards the bridges themselves.
My images of the natural bridges were unremarkable but as the weather conditions improved so did the photo opportunities.
I got this shot parked on the side of the road as the skies started to clear and the magnificent light began to play across the rock face.
