Snow Canyon State Park & Virgin River Gorge...17th April...

Just a short post today.....
We headed north 30 miles to the Utah Welcome Centre in St George for National Park, weather and route information for the next few weeks....
Mission accomplished so headed off on the 4 mile drive through pretty Snow Canyon State Park....
Large areas of black volcanic rock as well as the usual red sandstone...some areas of this park reminded us of the Scottish landscape....

Still some snow on the mountains....
This is the I-15 south through the spectacular Virgin River Gorge....
We will be towing north through here on Thursday !!
Me thinks it will be I'll look you drive !!!
We had planned to come back to this area to the Beaver Dam and Joshua Tree Park today but we are having another very gusty windy day....the locals say this strong windy weather is most unusual !!!
Until the next post...bye bye from
The Windswept Campers.....

  1. Hi Sue & Michael,
    Thanks for refreshing my brain cells with the reference to the Anasazi. Looks that you still have an eye for the perfect lunch spots. One good thing about the windy conditions you can get the washing dried.
    Enjoy.
