Verle and I decided that we needed to get out of the house yesterday. Probably because we needed to clean up our projects. So we got in the truck and headed up to Canyonlands. Verle has lived in this area all of his life and has never been to the "Island in the Sky" portion of Canyonlands. He really likes the "Needles" district and has been in remote areas of that part. We hiked around in about 6 inches of snow and got some wonderful photos of the area. It was a nice 1/2 day excursion. First we went to Aztec Butte were there are some granaries around the butte. We stopped at the Grand view and the famed Mesa Arch.
