We just got back from our annual May Moab trip. Just barely made it this year as May is almost over! Our plan for this day trip was to run Sevenmile Rim.

The last time I ran part of Sevenmile Rim was back in 2003, so I was looking forward to running the whole trail.

We took the short side trip to Uranium Arch

After spending some time at the park we headed down Long Canyon and back to Moab for an early dinner at the Moab Brewery before heading home.

Is it sad that it upsets me when it is referred to as the Monitor and the "Merrimac"? The ship's name was the CSS Virginia. Sheesh


Cool pics, I would love to get out that way sometime.
 
was thinking the same thing-- 'course we even named a bridge/tunnel after the "Merrimac" right where the Virginia and the Monitor battled, so I'm not as thin skinned about it anymore.:lecture:
