It’s been a busy past few weeks with work, travel, and the holidays, so I promise this is my last post from our trip to Moab. I wrote earlier about some great mountain biking and an amazing backpacking trip where we saw the aurora, but in the two weeks or so we were in southeast Utah, we also did a bunch of shorter trips that don’t warrant their own post. So, without further ado, are a few more photos from various hikes, sunsets, sunrises, and other shenanigans.
Have a very merry Christmas, and as always, get in touch!
