Off the desert floor for a bit

Four days in the desert spring. Some backpacking, one night of camping, and one memorable trip.

Our original plan had to be modified due to the weather. Putting in long miles on a dirt road with thunderstorms rolling through would not have made for a good weekend.

A couple of days meandering near Moab.

Moody day in Moab

@ramblinghemlock and I spent one last day in Wisconsin. We visited Aztalan State Park, where ancestral mound builders established an outlier connected to Cahokia further downriver. A few hundred people lived here, shaping a piece of history I did not learn about until well into my 20s.
