First cliff was Kane Creek Road.
Then we started driving Chicken Corners. The photo below shows where would be climbing to. Yes, there is a road all the way up to the base of the rock cliff, around the end of it, and over the other side. The top portion is called Hurrah Pass.
This is what it looks like about half way up.
Still a way to go ...
A view from the top looking out the other side from Hurrah Pass.
and heading back down.
On our way out we met some young guys along the road with hang gliders. At the top right point of this rock face is their friend about to jump off. I know you can't see him but I put this picture in here to show you where he started from.
He did a few flips on his way (incredible) and landed safely in a field of cactus (ouch).
Heading back out Kane Creek we stopped at a petroglyph called The Birthing Rock.
Look at the figure on the top left.
These were on the backside.
We also passed these Jeeps crawling up Moab Rim.
Later we drove through one of our favorite parks - Arches.
Travelling the Salt Valley Road was fine through the dessert until we met with the rock climb.
This is where we decided to stop. Yes, this is a road.
I NEVER get enough of those wonderful red rocks! Had my heart pumping just thinking about all the fun you are having. I will always remember the first time we did Pucker Pass and the climb...
