Sunrise at Valley of Fire State Park--The Wave

Spent the night at Valley of Fire

The Wave
Valley of Fire State Park

Back on the road headed out of Valley of Fire to White Pocket in Marble Canyon, Arizona.

On the way to White Pocket
House Rock Valley Road in the Vermillion Cliffs, Arizona
Airing the tires down in preparation for 25 miles of dirt and sand roads.

We made it to White Pocket right at sunset. The roads were by far the most challenging we've ever been on (and we've seen our fair share)--teeth rattling corduroy and very deep sand.
 It took us almost 2 hours to drive 15 miles!!!

We are the only ones here...except for a few little critters. This is about as remote as it gets. You'd never make it without 4-wheel drive and very good tires!

Obviously no internet service so will send tomorrow when we get back to civilization. Wish us luck!!!
