For something different we went hiking in the La Sal mountains, the upper Porcupine and Kokopelli trails where the colors are starting to change particularly the aspens. Unfortunately it is pretty hazy from smoke blowing in from fires in other states out west.
It is starting to get cool at night 50, but still warm during the day 80's but it is cooler in the mountains. High point on this hike was about 9500 feet which is over 5000 feet higher than in town. Hike was all up hill but we went for a beer at the brewery afterwards.

Have you been seeing any wildlife? Deer, elk, bear, sheep? Going hunting this fall?

A new area for me, north of Arches in the Salt valley area. Quite a bit of different terrain with both the grey and red sandstone and some big chert deposits in the beginning.
I was fortunate to find the tip of a spear or knife that native Americans made some time ago, one day I hope to find a complete tool made of chert, but they aren't too common.
Was a nice hike especially now that it is cooler during the day too.
Peter
