See those white dots out yonder, past Shane? And a couple of darker dots, too? No, not the trees. About the level of Shane’s ears. Earlier, that band had been up on top of the north side of Spring Creek canyon!

It’s not the first time I’ve seen horses up there, but it’s the first time I was in position to hustle down to the canyon to hike up to the top of the canyon. Unfortunately, by the time I’d hustled up, they’d moseyed down. The view wasn’t nearly as grand from the bowl as from the top of the rimrock-bound canyon.

It was nice to catch sight of them again, while hanging out with another band on a most-gorgeous, calm, peaceful, just lovely-as-all-get-out evening in Spring Creek Basin.

We have some more snow showing up in our forecast the next day or so. It’d be REALLY great to actually get it.

Great view, TJ…including the”dots!” I really love this perspective and how it makes the Moab La Sals look really BIG!

Like you can reach right out and touch ’em. … I wish we had some of that snow here, though I don’t begrudge them any of their snow!

Hope ya’ll get snow. … The February forecast looks decent … but our “snow” for tomorrow has already changed to rain. Ha. šŸ™‚

I don’t even want to look at the forecast. Last I looked it was snow showers temps in the high 40s…
