PETRIFIED FOREST, GRAND CANYON & CANYONLANDS

Leann had been to the West many times but this was my first trip west of the Mississippi. I was able to get a 2 week vacation so we decided to drive to the Grand Canyon. This was the first of many trips West.

First stop was Mount Capulin in NE New Mexico. We went for a hike but the wind was howling so we cut it short.
Next up was El Morro National Monument.
Canyon De Chelly which is hidden gem in the NE section of Arizona. You can see the trail that we took to the bottom.
We did a quick stop at Petrified Forest, for some reason we do not have many pictures.
First of three visits to the big ditch

We stopped at Monument Valley on the way to Canyonlands.
This is the first time we actually took a picture of the park sign.
Images might look a little different since they are scans of 35mm slides. Keep in mind this is pre digital.
Next to last stop
Last stop: Colorado National Monument
