Well. That makes my stroll down by the river look pretty paltry. What a glorious place.

"Garden of the Gods". I'd never heard of it, but I know a place called "Valley of the Gods" in Utah that sort of reminds me of it. I think the name requires a certain something.

Valley of the Gods is quite near Monument Valley and I feel more drawn to Valley of the Gods. In fact, if you stand on Muley point you can look down into both of them about 20 miles apart. For me, it's an intensely spiritual place.

Thanks for an absolutely glorious look at a fantastic place. Amazing walk, all in all.
