Canyonlands...part 2

The park itself is divided into 3 sections and is so big you couldn't see all of them in one visit.  The Needles section is 76 miles southwest of Moab, where we stayed.

Needles and the Maze are both suitable for backpacking or 4 wheeling, but not for the casual hiker, like Tom and I.

The elevation of the park is between 4,000 and 6,000 feet.  We're still way up high, but at least the air is getting clearer.
