Where the sand stands still

Southern Utah Overland-

I spent a few days with the Land Rover Discovery, a bed roll and my camera. Less is often more...

Camp one, at the Goosenecks

Valley of the Gods- It sure feels that way.

Camp two, hanging out with the Seven Sailors

As an interesting stroke of timing, I traveled to Comb Ridge just as a significant new development in the mystery of Everett Ruess was being put to print.

Comb Ridge is filled with mystery

My trip ended near Mule Canyon. It was a good adventure...

Great pictures! Looks like it was peaceful. Kinda nice to get away once in awhile.

Wow Scott!
What did you do? Roll up in a tarp and sleep on the ground?!?

Looks like a great trip bro...

What did you do? Roll up in a tarp and sleep on the ground?!?

A cot, 40 degree bag and a fleece liner for the higher elevations. I had a tarp for if it got wet. I prefer sleeping out on a cot or bedroll to a tent.

I do need to find the ultimate cot. Sounds like the start of a good test

Beautiful man. I still have yet to go to some of those places. On my list!

Very nice....simple, yeah I gotta move in that direction for my solo trips at least...family of 4 makes it tough when we all go.

A perfect getaway big guy. Cameras love Utah.

I'm using the Roll-A-Cot and its fantastic. Easy to use, rolls up to a good size for travel and is actually quite comfortable. Also comes in two sizes.

Scott, you are my hero. I'll go so far as to say I'll take a sleeping bag and Thermarest on the ground/w no tent over the bed in my bed room (oh wait, my bed IS my sleeping bag and Thermarest...). I love just sleeping out under the stars!

Just for the record, I sleep in my sleeping bag at home only because I'm moving in a few months and don't want to buy a new mattress just to give it away a few months later. But just the same, I sleep like a rock! :victory:
