Canyonlands, Monument Valley, Mesa Verde, Arches, Yellowstone, Death Valley, the Tetons, Bryce and Zion, Yosemite, Mesa Verde, Glacier and Grand Canyon, and Crater Lake in the US, then Banff and Jasper in Alberta all left me with the feeling that I missed too much because it was too much forContinue reading “April 16, 2025”
