Spring Camping can be a bit hit or miss. Many of the campgrounds in our area are not open yet and most mountain locations are still quite cold (and have snow). This, however, is a good time of year to head south. Two years ago we visited Arches National Park and I thought it might be fun to go back to that same area and visit Canyonlands National Park.

This is our second time at Jordanelle and I have to say it is quickly becoming a favorite…
