We were headed to Mesa Arch. The rock formation sits at the edge of a giant mesa in Canyonlands National Park. The mesa, called Island in the Sky, overlooks a vast canyon that was carved out by the Colorado River. It resembles the Grand Canyon, with sheer cliff and rock walls.
The full moon cast a bluish glow as we hiked. The snow radiated the light. We did not need headlamps, as the moon provided all the light we needed. The juniper trees and pinion pines looked strange and ominous in the nighttime effulgence.

Happy Holidays!
