Vermilion Cliffs

(nr Marble Canyon AZ)
After Marble Canyon, I continued along US-89A, which follows the Vermilion Cliffs until House Rock, where it climbs up to the Kaibab Plateau.

On the way, I stopped at pull-outs to take photos of the cliffs. It was late evening, so the light should have been good. But, because of the clouds and it not being quite late enough, I was disappointed with the results.

This should have been a more visually exciting route; perhaps the next time, I will find better light. I boondocked overnight just off the highway and up a forest road in the tall pines at about 7,000 ft.
