Evocative names for an evocative landscape, don’t you think?


This is the last post (at least for now) about this gorgeous Southern Utah landscape. Sigh. So much to love about it.

I’m guessing you’ve heard of Moab – it’s famous for hiking, biking, and brews. I experienced at least one of those when I was there with Sam – you guess which – and it’s well worth a visit, especially since it’s also the gateway to Canyonlands National Park, which we’ll get to in a second.

Those crazy rock formations are everywhere. (Cue the Freud jokes.)

So, Canyonlands. The name is majestic, and I kept thinking it would make a great title for a novel or a movie. (It probably already is, but I haven’t Googled it. I only have so much time, Internet.)

Different than the hoodoos at Bryce, but equally interesting.

Next, for some visual whiplash: New York City.
