Arches National Park

-By Josh-

Mel , her brother Bryan, and I woke up at three in the morning and packed the car with our gear for the next 5 days. The three of us were on our way to Arches and Canyonlands National Park. Mel and I had been anticipating this trip since our first journey there about a year ago to the week. We were especially excited to show it to Bryan, as he had only heard our stories about it.
It rained during the entire seven hour car trip. Not a very promising start, but fun weather to travel in. Our first stop was Arches. We arrived at around ten-thirty and made arrangements at the visitors center to backcountry camp at a place that was about a mile from the Delicate Arch. Since we had arrived at the park the rain had stopped but there were still some massive thunderstorms approaching from the west. Read More...

Great Sand Dunes National Park

-By Mel-

So Josh and I went to Sand Dunes National Monument this week on our days off...I'd never been before, and he'd been wanting to go back, so we decided to have fun and get out of the house for a couple days.

It's a really bizarre sight when it first comes into view...30 square miles of massive sand dunes, bordered on one side by towering 14,000 ft mountains, and on the other by flat prairie that stretches on for miles. It doesn't look as if it belongs in Colorado somehow. Apparently, the sand runs off the mountains in the streams, and the wind from the prairie sweeps in right back to the mountains feet. Once you get over how out of place it looks, it's actually quite beautiful. Looking out, you see peak after peak of rolling sand, their sharp ridges clearly defined by the dark shadows below them, and behind it all, the rugged tops of white dusted mountains. It was unlike anything I'd ever seen before. Read More...
