San Juan Adventures

My New Year's resolution for my family is to see more of San Juan county than just where our cows are. Here is what we saw a couple of Saturday's ago. We spent 9 straight hours in the truck and everyone was a great sport about it. We did see Valley of the God's, but I never got a picture of it. So far, we can check Butler Wash Indian Ruins, Natural Bridges, Mulie Point, Mokie Dugway, Goosenecks, Monument Valley (although I want to actually go see them - not just from a distance...Tyler and I have been there but I want my kids to see it), Mexican Hat, Valley of the Gods, Comb Ridge and Twin Rocks off the list!!!!

Heading out to Butler Wash Indian Ruins
Butler Wash Indian Ruins - they were huge! - A big village
Natural Bridges
Sipapu Bridge
I was amazed at this huge canyon carved out of water
We were tying to go
The Horse Collar Indian Ruin...it was amazing that they had built these literally in the cliff. I don't' know how they didn't fear for their lives all the time. Not a great picture...they were tiny.

Aspyn couldn't resist climbing on every rock she say
Chez either. Not too mention, she refused to walk on the easy path and had to work at walking.

I wonder why my children won't adhere to the "stay on path" signs???...cause their father doesn't either.
Kachina Bridge

Owachomo Bridge
Coy got to go on this hike

Can you see Tyler and Aspyn down there?


It was windy, windy, windy!
Looking off Mulie Point into Monument Valley in the distance
