Now on Hartnet Road, I'm completely out of view of Cathedral Valley, but there are still interesting rock formations
|
|
 |
The next few photos show one of the hazards of driving when the road is muddy!

 |
My guess is that this vehicle slid off the road here
|
|
|
 |
The terrain isn't quite as interesting here...
|
|
 |
...But now you can see the Henry Mountains in the distance.
|
|
 |
There's a little snow still on the distant mountains

The Bentonite Hills.
|
|
 |
Bentonite clay is derived from volcanic ash.

I spent a few minutes here looking for a geocache that had been found only once in the two years since it was set out. When I left, it had been found twice!

This was the end of the road for me! I had to ride back around to the start. Fortunately there's a shortcut road that cut the distance by about 2/3.

My camping spot. Nobody else was around.

 |
This flower was close to my camping spot - actually only a couple of feet away. It's lucky I didn't run over it!

On the way to Escalante, it's obviously frozen overnight where these sprinklers were irrigating the field.
