We wanted to get back to Canyonlands, although this time up on the plateau overlooking the Colorado and Green Rivers. We camped at Dead Horse SP where horses used to be corralled at the plateau's point with only a narrow neck to the balance of the plateau. A very short fence is all it took to keep the horses on premises....although a few decided to try a way off the plateau...thus "Dead Horse Point." We enjoyed this nice campground, but didn't get too close to the edge!
Having biked the White Rim Trail, 1,000 feet into the canyon, we wanted to gaze down from the top, so we biked along the park's road. We kept stopping as we biked out to Grand View along Canyonland's "Island in the Sky" section of the National Park, and saying....."wow, we were down there...." Deep in the canyon, biking around the canyon edge, and along the rivers.
