225 miles of cycling today! We went to the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. No hiking just biking. The visitor center at Escalante is the best. There is a good 20 minute film about the area and very good displays. Did you know that there are 648 species of bees in this area? I also learned about cryptobiotic soils! The area is used to do research for the University of Utah. A good day to learn.
