The trails out here are not that easy to find so I borrowed a GPS unit to narrow the location down a bit. After much trial and error I figured out how the contraption worked and then managed to track my trail to and from the ruins. I now know the exact location the photos were taken which will make is easier to find next time we go there.
Here is the typical parking arrangement out in the bush. Not quite parallel parking. Just enough space is left in case someone wants to get past on the road.
The power of a photo is amazing . Recently I had been looking at some photos in a photo magazine and one in particular caught my eye. It was of some ancient ruins in Southeastern Utah. Well after looking at it many times I decided that I would like to find that particular spot. I consulted with several maps and web sites and finally came up with the approximate location. Wandering around in the desert in search of these places is somewhat like looking for that needle in the haystack.
Fortunately for us we happened upon the right trail and developed a few friendships along the way in our quest for our own images. The people who visit these remote places come from all over the world. Some have come several times over the years.
