Goblin Valley

[Basil]

SWMBO and I went tent camping (large cabin tent) at Goblin Valley State Park, Utah over the Labor Day weekend. All the established camp sites were booked weeks ago so we ended up off the park doing "dispersed" camping. We found a very remote, isolated spot near Wild Horse Butte. It was a really nice place but hot in the daytime. Evenings were very pleasant and we both slept like babies. We did a lot of hiking and exploring and I did some night photography (will post later after I've done some post processing.

Awesome spots! I've camped near there a number of times, just fantastic. Thanks for the pics, gives me some motivation to get back down there this fall.
