Peter,

thanks for the pictures, the countryside looks a lot drier than before cool And don't worry too much about the hat - mine doesn't look much different laugh
It's maybe not as cool looking as a cowboy hat but you can easily fold it into the backpack if need be.

Peter

(But I must admit I always wanted to have a real cowboy hat...)

Thanks for the pics, great vistas.

I am a big supporter of your type of hat. Having lived in Asia's heat and humidity and the heat of the Middle East, you need all the protection you can get from the sun.

How about an off road motorcycle for exploring? I know you can't take your dogs, but I assume you would be able to go places where few people have gone.

I'm bustin' Peter on his cover...but I wear the exact same one on the boat. It works quite well on the Big "O"...and if it takes a "dunk" it dries out in no time!
Peter: I just bought a Kawasaki "Teryx", Monster Edition! 750cc and a screamer! There's room for both your dogs..."PLUS"...another passenger. It is the size of the Yamaha Rhino without all of the legal entanglements.It's quite a bit more manageable than a Polaris Ranger.Check 'em out!
Best, Capt. Chris

Thanks for the comments guys
I know I made the right choice moving here, I just love the red rock.
Most people have some kind of wide brim hat when they are out hiking, and I don't worry about what I look like anymore either. The most important thing is to have plenty of water all the time
I am most interested in the four door Jeep Wrangler for getting around in the back country. Starting this Friday for the next week over 20000 people will be in town for the annual Jeep Safari.

Peter-

The 4-door Wrangler is a very popular edition and one that you can "mod" till the cows come home. Get the automatic and not the standard shift as you'll like the traction alot better. Get at least the 4.10 or lower. That southern Utah country is so vast, you'd never see it all in a lifetime. Be carefull out there.

Peter,

I like the pictographs in the picture with you and your hat. Are they all over the area?

And 4-door Wranglers are great vehicles. I have one, and it is a really good 4x4. Good tires and a winch are nice to have on the jeep.

Peter,
I'm curious. Like in the northeast we have to keep an eye out for black bear,
while hiking and backpacking, are there any mountain lions out there?
