Moab & Arches National Park

April 21st

This is day 1 of 3 in Moab: Scored a great campsite with views, space and protection from the wind.
Bonus: it's waterfront - on the Colorado river.
Non-bonus: like all of the public campgrounds around Moab there were no showers. Only RV parks have showers. Now, does that make sense?

We hit the park kind of willy-nilly: If there's a trailhead... let's go see! By the end of the day we'd hiked four of the parks trails. One was a nice introduction to this world of towering rock, another essentially a playground for parents & kids.. The last, and most remote, was the most fun. Even though it required another lonnngg drive down a dirt road, we were rewarded with our private playground of arches and slickrock
