From Page our plan was to go to the North rim of the Grand Canyon. We drove over the Colorado River near the Vermillion Cliffs. Then GPS had us turn onto a road that was unpaved...and it began to snow...
built around large boulders that had fallen from the cliffs above.
Weather was being a bit "iffy" so we returned back to the bridge and I was able to get a picture of one of the California Condors that they have reintroduced to the area.
It had a tag with the number 54 on both sides of its wings. While they are quite ugly it was fun to see them and then also watch them fly about.
The following day we went to Monument Valley. The visitors center was closed so we pulled over to the side of the road, let Moxie out to sniff and stretch a little, ate our lunch, took some pictures, and drove back home to the VIA. We have since heard that the Navajo Nation is struggling to deal with covid-19. 
On to Kanab...where for the first time in a month there was an actual dog Park for Bryant to throw the ball for Moxie...she was so happy!!
It is quite sad to see that the hotels are almost empty here...nothing is crowded. Since we missed the slot canyon tours out of Page...I called and got a gentleman to take us out to the Red Canyon Peek a boo slot canyons. He drove us three and a half miles down a deep sandy wash. 
It was beautiful and we had them to ourselves almost the entire time!
The gentleman that was our guide gave us some geologic history of the area as well as some of the differences between the Navajo Antelope slot canyons and the peek a boo slot canyons
The peek a boo slot canyon is natural, not cleaned or spruced up for tourists...and of course the best for us to hear was the tours of Antelope canyons (when they are open) are jammed with people...win...win for us!
The following day we went to Moqui Cave...scaling the rocks to get up there but a beautiful cave.
To the Coral Sand Dune State Park...which after we got there we found out that the governor mandated that the parks are only "open" for local residents...so I hiked to the top of a dune on the side of the road for a few pictures.
Our guide from the previous day told us of this hike...again more rock climbing than hiking and the route I took had us going through this rock crevasse...
we made it...
through the "skinny ass thing"...that is a direct quote from Bryant...to...
the dinosaur footprints on the top!!
There was again only one other couple on the trail, going down as we were coming up so our social distancing is working out quite well!
Today, being Bryant's birthday, I gave him his one wish of no hiking today. We went out riding our bikes this morning instead! He will be grilling his own steak dinner while I steam some brocolli and asparagus.
Tomorrow is another day and so another hike is planned here near Kanab...another slot canyon! Hopefully we can find it! Wooohooo!!
So happy birthday Bryant! Love you and love us!
