July Road Trip - 7-23-14 Afternoon

After leaving Dead Horse, it was on to the Island in the Sky District of
Canyonlands National Park. The Island in the Sky sits atop a 1500 foot mesa,
"quite literally an Island in the Sky".

Racked up nine miles hiking today, with the longest hike in the early
afternoon in temperatures of 110 degrees, making the hike seem longer than
it really was. The last hike was to the Mesa Arch On the drive leaving the
park, the late afternoon sun put on a light show, splashing color
everywhere.
