After an afternoon making our way south from Moab through the vast
emptiness of the remainder of Utah, and spending a night in unremarkable
Farmington, NM, we visited the Bisti Badlands (aka Bisti/De-Na-Zin
Wilderness). It's several thousand remote acres of crazy geologic
formations that change around every corner. Apparently, it's a
bucket-list sort of place for photographers (and there are some
incredible images on the web), but, due to it's remoteness, actual
visitation is pretty limited (the only number I could find was 2000
visitors per year).
In an ideal world, we would have camped
there to get a full dose of the evening/morning light and the huge night
sky, but logistics got in the way, so we settled for an early morning
of wandering. It was still quite the eye-full, and the range of sizes,
colors, and shapes was pretty mind-boggling.!
