For Moab, that's great for you all, but not so good for local businesses. Hopefully this nightmare will stop before it's too late.

Another nice day in the back country, fairly long drive on 4WD roads to get to the hike, no sign of any other humans for miles, driving separately and keeping our social distancing.
A fair number of balanced rocks in this area as well as other geological wonders

Great shots Peter.

Be careful out there alone.
My Wife never likes when I go hiking or kayaking alone,
but HEY! ...
I always have a Randall with me, what could go wrong??

Great pictures Peter!! As Tony said, hiking alone isn't such a good idea unless you have cell service. Take care and stay healthy.

Thanks guys for the comments and concern

I am not by myself, one friend and dog were with me yesterday and the maximum group size now is six persons

We are being extra careful too

And I do have a model 28 with me also

Another remote location south of town probably 40 miles from any other people. Bobby's hole and Hart's draw.
Here are some photos from this adventure

Peter,

You sure do take a good picture. The mushroom rock is pretty neat.
