Needles Overlook & La Sal Mountain Scenic Drive.....11th Oct

Yorkieman enjoying the amazing view from Needles Overlook giving us a  glimpse of Canyonlands  National Park......
The National Parks are still closed, very sad for all concerned but we are making the most of being flexible and  in this area every corner turned reveals another panorama and canyon country scenery.....

The beginning of the La Sal Mountain 65 mile scenic drive......
Ummm there was just enough space for me to drive around mum and baby as they were not going to move !!!
This was just the first of several head of cattle on this road, including the bull !
The heavy rain we had yesterday in Moab  fell as snow here in the mountains ......we are now at 7000ft...

We had forgotten until coming into an area where there are deciduous trees that it's autumn....
We think it's time Camp Harris moves south.....
The La Sal Mountain loop road ends in Castle Valley, more amazing structures and canyons and some very mice houses.....
We've had a good day made better by the news that the Utah governor has negotiated with the government to re-open the Utah National Parks tomorrow with State funding.........
