Capitol Reef Nat. Park May 09

The Call of The Wild - Robert Service
Have you gazed on naked grandeur where there's nothing else to gaze on,

Set pieces and drop-curtain scenes galore,
Big mountains heaved to heaven, which the blinding sunsets blazon,
Black canyons where the rapids rip and roar?
Have you swept the visioned valley with the green stream streaking through it,
Searched the Vastness for a something you have lost?
Have you strung your soul to silence? Then for God's sake go and do it;
Hear the challenge, learn the lesson, pay the cost.

Have you wandered in the wilderness, the sagebrush desolation,
The bunch-grass levels where the cattle graze?
Have you whistled bits of rag-time at the end of all creation,
And learned to know the desert's little ways?
Have you camped upon the foothills, have you galloped o'er the ranges,
Have you roamed the arid sun-lands through and through?
Have you chummed up with the mesa? Do you know its moods and changes?
Then listen to the Wild -- it's calling you.





There is a cool cave right here where the sun shines through for some cool pics.

Nice image!
The sun setting on Cohab Canyon and Capitol Reef, amazing!

Bonnie lassie blazing the trail.

Bonnie and I rock climbed up by Hickmans bridge and found this snake made out of little stones kind of cool.
Sweet image of bonnie with the sun falling behind her.
