Mother nature is messing with our plans again. We left Santa Fe early with the intention of spending the late morning riding in Taos. Um, no. Temps in the 40s and rain.
So we ditched that plan and bolted for Colorado to get as close as possible to Utah for the night.
Not far north of Taos is the Rio Grande canyon.

We're spending the night in Cortez, 20 miles from Utah. We've learned that the campgrounds in Arches, Canyonlands and Capitol Reef are booked as well as many of those around Moab. We'll be up early again to get there before noon for the best walk-in chances. Wish us luck!
