Day 11 may be found here. Up at the break of dawn. Bruce texts that he is on his way. It’s a long enough drive from South Fork that I decide to hike down and check out Point of Rocks in the background. There have been at least three bridges...Read more

Day 8 may be found here. I’m up at the crack of dawn. It’s a pretty nice campground, except for being a little buggy. The asphalt was a bit hard. The restrooms have actual plumbing. I suspect there are camper hookups, though I don’t generally pay attention to that. Haven’t...Read more

Well, not completely different. While Gary is not Bruce and is not family, he’s gotten to be a good friend. And if we’re not looking at geology in Utah and Colorado, we are looking at geology back home in the Jemez. The posts on my annual out of the Jemez...Read more
