Saturday

The rain falls all Friday night and into Saturday and by then, everything is a waterfall. The Moab Half Marathon slugs on despite the rain and in Moon Flower Canyon Tammy climbs the Indian crevice stairs all the way to the top.

Where Did They Live?



Since finding the granary a few years ago where Indians stored their food at the mouth of Lockhart Canyon, Tom has always been curious where the Indians might have lived and if they left drawings nearby. Today, Tammy and Tom visit the first canyons going into Lockhart and after revisiting the granary and seeing the corn on the cob still present a thousand years later spend the day searching for any other signs of the Indians existence and find none. That's how it works. It took three days originally to find the granary and it will likely take many more to find anything that goes with it.
