How beautiful is this tree growing off the golden wall trail in red canyon? 🤩 Ive seen so many beautiful twisted trees lately. I think this is a young bristlecone pine.

Cedar Breaks National Monument was once of the most beautiful places I've ever visited. I got quite emotional yesterday sitting with the 1500 year old bristlecone pine trees and thinking about all the things they have seen over time.

The Lehman Caves @greatbasinnp were absolutely amazing. I never ever do tours, but im so glad I booked this one. Ranger Erin who led the tour was awesome. Its her first season as a ranger and only the THIRD time she's ever led a full tour. She had us fooled - could have been leading tours for 10yrs!

This may not be the most impressive photo from the last trip, but it IS the one that captures the feeling best. Had a great 2 weeks driving around with @reneeasaurus.rex
