KANAB UTAH

An easy slot to access. While we were there, we had to share the canyon with a few head of cattle.

Spent an evening walking amount the strange but beautiful toadstool hoodos in the eponymous park. Near Kanab, UT

One of the many archival images of the fantastic landscape of Vermilion Cliffs National Monument, Sandcove area, Coyote Buttes North, Arizona, USA.

Heading into Bryce in the next set of photos! :D

On the border between Utah and Arizona, in Arizona on the side of the rode 2321 N Main St, Fredonia, AZ 86022, there is the Buckskin Tavern. Parked out in front of the tavern's unreadable sign is a beat up old truck. I thought it made for a cool photo.

Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona

 

Kanab Creek begins to the north on the Pausagunt Plateau, 100 miles from its confluence with the Colorado. Kanab is an anglicized form of the Southern Paiute word for “willow”. In 1872, Powell declared his second expedition over at Kanab Creek. The members of the expedition hiked out of the canyon from the Colorado River, assisted by packmule train, with much of the trip’s supplies to the town of Kanab. Powell may have decided to abruptly end the expedition out of concern for rising flood waters, or the possibility of a confrontation with the Native American bands downstream. Additionally, Powell’s memories and the data collected from his 1869 expedition, as well as his knowledge of the Wheeler Expedition’s lower canyon traverse to Diamond Creek in 1871; undoubtedly influenced his decision to end the trip.

I got really lucky with lighting in these shots

My prayers are with the people who are on the path of hurricane Irma.

 

Many thanks to all those who view, fav or comment my pictures. I very much appreciate it.

Spent the weekend in the beautiful Kanab Utah during the Kanab Utah hot air balloon festival. Their was a lot of cool balloons, a street street fair, with bands and food, and even a paper lantern lighting. Was great, I want to make it an annual happening for me.

Hot Air Balloon Festival in Kanab Utah February 2022. I love going to the Balloon fests. Not only do I get to see the balloons floating in the sky but I also get to watch the crews get them ready to fly.

Yep, Kanab got a lot of snow yesterday! Here's a shot from just outside of town.

After reaching the top of the hill in my last photo, everything changed dramatically.

 

In full respect of the differences, I am starting a new series of photos instead of continuing with "Scenes of Cottonwood Canyon Road."

Toadstool Hoodoos near Kanab, Utah

This strip of southern Utah and northern Arizona has so many special places. Toadstool Hoodoos are on a plateau a short hike from the highway.

Handheld. I wish I had a tripod on me, there were so many other cool shots I could have snagged.

A wall of the Navajo Sandstone Formation contrasted with a bold blue sky and bright white Cumulus clouds. A nice Autumn day in Southern Utah.

Via Wikipedia: Grosvenor Arch is a unique sandstone double arch located within Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in southern Kane County, Utah, United States. It is named to honor Gilbert Hovey Grosvenor (1875–1966), a president of the National Geographic Society, publishers of the National Geographic Magazine.

 

Located in northern Kane County, it is close to and south of Kodachrome Basin State Park and is accessed from the north or south via Road 400, a dirt road that traverses Cottonwood Canyon in the western portion of the national monument.

This was a road that I found randomly on Google maps. We planned to take it, and did take it, the day that we left Page, AZ to go to Bryce Canyon. I took a ton of photos like this along the way that I'll be sharing over the next few days.

 

Take a moment to read more about Cottonwood Canyon Road.

About a mile off Cottonwood Canyon Road near Grosvenor Arch.

This took me far longer to edit than I would have ever imagined. I don't even think I want to admit just how long it took...... Apparently there is an incredible amount of air traffic to the west of Kanab Utah.

 

I left Kanab heading west and just pulled off the road, drove out some completely random roads, parked on a corner and started shooting. I was there for almost 3 hours and not one car drove down this road. I definitely didn't expect to get that lucky when I was setting it up!! The small "smudge" in the bottom left was a rogue cloud band. I thought about removing it but it tells a little more of the story. :)
