Liberty Cap

Yesterday morning Amanda and I headed to the Colorado National Monument to hike the full Liberty Cap Trail. I have hiked it from the bottom before, which is a shorter, but steeper hike. This time I wanted to start from Rim Rock Drive and hike across Monument Mesa to Liberty Cap, and then finish off the trail to the bottom. The full trail was about 7 miles in length and took us about 4 hours to complete. Here’s a couple of pictures I took along the way.

I didn’t want to get too far away from home, so I ended up heading out to the Dome Plateau & Yellow Cat areas north of Arches and Moab to explore some other trails and spurs in the area I had not been on yet. I started out heading towards Moab on UT 128, but turned off a few miles before the old Dewey Bridge onto Wood Road.

After leaving Dinosaur National Monument and a quick stop in Vernal we headed south on our way home. However, we did have one more stop planned at Fantasy Canyon along the way. This was a cool area, however we ended up getting there at a bad time…..most of the photos I took were shooting into the sun, so they didn’t turn out as well as I would have liked. We will have to head back another time to get some better shots. Here’s some of the better ones I got….
