September 13

I made it through the mountains and stayed overnight in a BLM open area near Grand Junction CO.  This is a part of CO that most people don't see.  The view was awesome and I got to see the milky way in the sky for the first time in years...

On the way to Grand Junction I met a man named Steve at one of the rest areas, he works there, and we chatted for quite a while.  He's a photographer and knowing that I was looking for dispersed camping options, he recommended that I take a different route to Moab Utah...

This morning after leaving Grand Junction I took Steve's advice and went the road less traveled, and the views were amazing...

Here are some shots I took off I-70 just across the Utah border...



After leaving the interstate and staying on a small two lane road for miles, the scenery was gorgeous.  I finally had to force myself to keep on driving because I was taking all of my time pulling off the road to take pictures and videos...





and some videos...
