I camped at Muley Point for some days. This place is certainly – even more than Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park – the most amazing surprise of my 2022 summer travels.

The views south over the twisting, entrenched canyons of the San Juan River and to the desert beyond are amazing. It is a peaceful location with not many visitors. It has many places where it is possible to drive off road and camp right at the edge of the sheer cliffs – without any doubt one of the best (free) camping places in Utah.

I’m standing here on a huge rock. By maneuvering small pieces back and forth and left and right over the rock, which is not flat at all, I managed to end up completely level with the motorhome.

Before I start with the 2022 summer travels stories and pictures I would like to show you a picture that was taken on March 18, 2022 while I was visiting Sedona for some days. It was a full moon evening and we went with some friends to the Crescent Moon Picnic Site to watch the moon coming up behind the mountain. 

It was a beautiful evening. However, it got cold rather fast and one of my friends wanted to offer me a (spare) hat – and then couldn’t because he had it not with him. It was fine with me, but I will not forget that he told me that we loose 80% of our body warmth through the head and that therefore a hat is important when it gets cold. I had never been a hat person before but have now always a woolen hat in my RV and use it quite often. It’s great to have a hat even when it gets just a little bit cold!

I’m writing this post on September 12, 2022. I finally found a – halfway – comfortable way to put content onto my travel blog website. I decided to start with the beginnings of my 2022 summer travels in my RV, but when I came across this picture I wanted to start with it. It is a beautiful reminder for myself to know that I have friends in Sedona and that I always have a great time when I’m visiting there.

I will continue from here with the 2022 travels and hope that I can add the pictures and stories from my 2021 travels, when I visited more than 10 National Parks, later.
