#TBT - Cedar Breaks National Monument

Cedar Breaks National Monument is a special place in Utah that I got to experience with my BFF Molly. I haven’t been in almost 6 years, but I’d love to go back. Enjoy a little throwback this Thursday.

The trail along the rim, out to Spectra Point and beyond, was interesting because it felt like you could just slide right down into the canyon at parts. It was a wild, quick visit and I would like to go back and see it again.

So, walking on this mount at Spectra Point was a little freaky - you’re above the railings and can see down into the canyon

Way Back Wednesday

In honor of booking my flight for the 2nd Annual BFF Adventure, I'm throwing it back to our 1st annual trip. I originally planned a solo excursion to Utah, but my BFF Molly decided to go and now it's an annual adventure for us. Once spot we visited last year really stuck out for me and that was Cedar Breaks National Monument. What a breathtaking, intense, and gorgeous place to feel small. While I don't see us getting back to Cedar Breaks, I'll always have these memories - so enjoy a few photos.

Spectra Point - was a bit overwhelming to feel so high above the hoodoos

This year, we'll be hitting the ground in Utah again! Molly has not been to Arches National Park, so we'll spend the majority of our time there. I hope to hike to Delicate Arch right away, before crowds and heat, and then hit up the rest of the park after that. So much to do, so little time! Where is your favorite place in Utah? After a Saturday in Arches, what would you recommend for half a Sunday? Comment your idea or send me an email! As always, thanks for following along and happy trails!
