The Muleys


Last weekend we camped on a side road off the Wolverine Loop.  It was a pretty quiet camp, but not far from the park boundary.  First, we went over and tried Upper Muley.  It was too busy and noisy for me, but there were some beautiful arches.  (I'll let EDO feature those because she tookby farthe best pictures of them.)  Next, we did a one-way through Lower Muley, using the Post Trailhead as our exit point.  It was nicer:  Not nearly the traffic.  All in all, though, the National Parks are like Disney World:  Packed with consumers.


I made a bunch of pictures and uploaded too many of them.  Here.  But, the real revelation of the trip was VSO.  She pounded out the miles.  Amazing.  After a complete sternotomy and six weeks of radiation, most people wouldn't be crawling.  Instead, VSO was covering six miles of rough country every day.  And doing it with a smile on her face.  The girl has grit.

  1. I love you, AO! And I couldn’t have hiked as far as I did without your patience when I needed to rest.
