mobbing in moab

this past weekend aaron, andre, andre's friend from georgia, jake, and i traveled down to moab in southern utah. it's an amazing red rock desert with crazy rock formations and great hiking- sheri and dad, you guys should totally come camping here sometime- you would LOVE it. seriously, the pictures do not do the place justice- it's so incredibly beautiful there!
balanced rock.
the landscape around our camp site.
wall arch- i think? team picture- me, aaron, andre and jake.
on the night we got there we went on a hike up these crazy canyons- the views were spectacular and the dark skies made for amazing pictures.
there were these holes made by erosion all over the place- water would get trapped inside of them so they looked like little hot tubs.
hiking up even further...
we hiked up to the highest point all around us- it was pretty scary up there because it was SO windy and cold.
this is delicate arch! once again, pictures do not do this place justice. the hike up is amazing and we were so lucky to have blue skies on sunday morning!
lover face!
ah incredible!
this is called newspaper rock. it was like 40 miles south of where we were camping but we really wanted to see it- it's this crazy huge rock that has petroglyphs all over it. experts can't tell how old some of the pictures are but they guess that some of them date back to b.c. times. it was fun to make up stories about why the people had carved these pictures.

i had a really hard time choosing which pictures to put up because i have tons of them, so check out my facebook album for more! love you guys so much!
