We headed down to Southern Utah for the weekend, camping in Kodachrome Basin and exploring Grand Staircase-Escalante Monument.

The kids put their umbrellas together to make a little fort at camp.

We explored a few trails in Kodachrome Basin.

The next two days we ventured into Grand Staircase-Escalante.

Out in the canyons and slickrock:

We saw quite a few blooming cacti.

Dinner and exploring in Devil’s Garden:

Walking in the warm water of Willis Creek Narrows:

We saw lots of beautiful flowers and fascinating plants

and some wildlife too.

We really enjoyed exploring new places.
