6-6 After a REALLY brief stop in the grand canyon we headed towards Bryce Canyon but took a "scenic" route through Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. The path was rugged to say the least. Inches of sand and huge hills. The only thing out there seemed to be little antelope, well that is except for the "one" person we saw the whole time. Chris had been biking for nearly 30 miles and started back towards his car but it was almost impossible to bike the path so was basically stranded. We were lucky enough to come by him and pick him up....he was grateful to say the least.
