Alive and Pedaling

Update...

It's been three days. In that span I: saw breathtaking rock formations, stealth camped in the middle of a million acre park and experienced real stargazing, met the gracious Lulu and her husband at a rest stop in Hite, met park rangers Bob and Rosemary who provided ice, biked 150 miles in two days, biked in 105* weather, saw a double rainbow, saw 700 year old Indian ruins, met another cyclist named Michael who also biked with the MS guys, came face to face with a coyote (he was cool), learned all about the Colorado plateau, and somehow, I accidentally caught back up with the MS cyclists at a motel in Hanksville. I take this as a sign. I'll be with them again today.

Today, we roll through Capitol Reef Park; another stunning and endless area of curious rock formations.

Also, all the good pictures of the park are on my digital camera as my phone died. These pictures below... suck compared to the others. Oh well.

For pictures of those, google "Glen Canyon", "White Canyon" or "Natural Bridges Park"
Overlooking Native American ruins.

A road through the side of a mammoth eroded rock crust. Other side was crazy.
