2025 - West - UT - Kanab - Coral Pink Sand Dunes, Sand Caves, & Belly of the Dragon - March 31

 3/30 - Drove to one of our favorite places - Kanab Utah

3/31 - This was a very full day. It began with the Coral Pink Sand Dunes. It was a very beautiful but very difficult walk through deep sand.

The three on the right are Vaughan, Jill & Jim.

Next we went to the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary which on any given day is home to around 1700 animals of all kinds. They care for these animals until they can be adopted. 

Vaughan decided he wanted to hike up to the Sand Caves which is just outside the entrance to Best Friends.  These caves were man-made when they began mining sand. Sounds silly.

From here it was a short drive to the Belly of the Dragon. First you climb down into the mouth.

next you are hiking through its throat. It gets very dark and narrow. I had to trun on my flashlight to get through but what a blast.

and out the other end.

and then back through.
