Mon, Oct 8th - Arches National Park and Colorado Jetboat Tour

Morning, Arches National Park.

Delicate Arch, 45 ft high and 33 ft wide

Balanced Rock

Afternoon, Canyonlands by Day Boat Tour

Here's the jet boat we took down the Colorado River. It was a 4-hr trip down and back. Where are we? Taking a potty break part way down the river in an outhouse!

And here's our guide, Rory.

Here's the group (minus Neil and Bob Foerster) up the trail where we saw some petrified wood.

Here's one of the pieces of petrified wood that we saw imbedded in some of the rock.

One of the views going down the Colorado River.

We saw several rock climbers today.

Recognize this tall rock? Check out the commercial where a man walks out of his front door and parasails down to his car to go to work. Now do you remember what he drives to work! I don't either. They used a helicopter to get the fake house and picketed fence up to the top. Tourism is Moab's No. income maker, but films and ads are No. 2!
