After spending a few days exploring Kaibab National Forest and the North Rim of The Grand Canyon, it was my intention to push northward. I had been off the grid for too long, and I needed to catch up on some work, so I studied the map to find the nearest populated area. Seeking out Internet access used to be daunting, but it has become somewhat routine. In fact, I was starting to enjoy the hunt as it would often yield a charming coffee shop, or a quiet and cozy public library. I had two destinations to choose from: Kanab, Utah, a small town on the southern border of Utah, which I knew very little about, or Page, Arizona, which was surrounded by natural attractions. I opted for the latter, and was off to discover Page!

The road to Page, a two hour drive from the North Rim, is lined with spectacles. As soon as you leave Kaibab National Forest, the vibrant red Vermillion Cliffs loom to the north. Also, a towering bridge crosses the Colorado River where it flows through the Marble Canyon. The river itself is so far below that it can barely be seen from your car window. One attraction that caught my eye was a series of massive rocks, precariously perched, like naturally occurring cairns. Built into the sides of these formations were crude stone structures. There were the residences of the Cliff Dwellers. It was hard to imagine that folks, at one point, lived in these ramshackle stone homes, next to monstrous, teetering boulders that looked like they could fall over in a strong gust of wind!
