Valley Of The Gods

Just up the road from Bluff is an unpaved road which travels for about 17 miles round a valley. It is called the Valley of The Gods, also known as The Little Monument Valley. It runs through a whole area of buttes, mesas and needles. Many of them have a name, some don't, our favourites were the Stting Hen and The Rooster, hopefully you will be able to see them in the photos. The trip left us with an overpowering sense of awe as we picked our way through the valley, looking at great heights and vertiginous drops. Along the way we saw a lot of desert plants, some of them known at home, the Daisy and Allysum, being two.
We returned to the trailer tired out, so had to go and eat at the local Twin Rocks Trading Post, which was OK, but meant I didn't have to cook.
