Utah, Kanab - Wednesday, September 12, 2018 - Driving Johnson Canyon Road



The Johnson Canyon road is a paved road with lots of great scenery.






See the area that looks like paint has been poured down the side of the mountain?  There are several areas like that.  Obviously, it isn’t paint.  I don’t know if it is the formation of the rock itself or coloring coming from one of the other areas of rock that seeps out during rain.



The White Mountains are visible throughout this area.




Greg just couldn’t resist going off road.  I have to laugh when he says, “hold on this could get rough”.  He wasn’t kidding, the drop off in this wash was much steeper than it looks in the picture!





Ok, we know this isn’t a cloud.



Can you see the rock that looks like a tepee just right of the center of the picture?  Greg thinks someone made this.



There are a lot of mountainsides out here that look like strong winds have brushed their surfaces into some intricate designs.




We decided to take an unimproved road to see if we could find the source of the smoke.  This road was like a washboard but it was nice and wide and not nearly like that narrow trail he took earlier.  We weren’t able to see the source of the smoke, it ended up being on the other side of a mountain range.



Some scenery on the way back home.




One of the brochures we looked at called this a “pioneer billboard”.  The writing is very faint, hard to see.
