Day 13: Moab to Cortez, Colorado

Today was a travel day, from Moab (elevation: 4,000) to Cortez (elevation: 6,200 feet). So while initially exciting as we climbed out of the Moab valley, the road gave way to the gradual incline roads that are on top of the Colorado Plateau.

Here is the Wilson Arch, which is a wind-eroded arch formation on the road from Moab to Monticello.

Once you get to Monticello, you take a left and head east to Cortez, Co. Once again, we got lucky with the KOA in Cortez. It has good WiFi, and the views of the Mesa Verde area are pretty spectacular.

So that picture is looking southeast, and here is the sunset looking west...

So, we got all settled in to our new home for a few days.
