Chimney Rock Rocks!

     

     The potato cats originally planned to camp out on Lobo Pass last night, but things didn't go their way as a big storm was brewing near them. To escape the mighty wrath of Zeus, the cats decided to abandon the area entirely and press on all the way to Pagosa Springs, which smells a lot worse than its name would lead you to believe. As the smell of sulfur was too unbearable for the cats' sensitive noses, they had to travel even farther, which led them to visit the Chimney Rock National Monument. To see all the sights and hike on all the trails free of charge, the cats had to climb all the way up a 2.5 mile road. It was well worth it, however, as the cats were able to learn a lot more about the people who lived near Chimney Rock over a thousand years ago. The staff there were very knowledgeable and could answer pretty much any question thrown at them, which greatly satisfied the cats' endless curiosity. After leaving Chimney Rock with more knowledge than they originally entered with, the potato cats are now peacefully resting in Durango before they continue onward to Mesa Verde (so far,  Durango has earned the unanimous approval from all the potato cats).

Dead Horse Point State Park - Weird Name, Great Views

Image
    Even though the potato cats had an amazing time touring Arches National Park, they unfortunately had to cut it short and find a campground quickly as they had overslept into the afternoon. They wound up at the entrance of Dead Horse Point State Park, where the park ranger told them that there was one campsite remaining. After a small debate, the cats happily took the campsite as it would allow them to see the park in the evening and in the morning. The views (especially the sunset and sunrise) were absolutely stellar, and the campground was clean and packed with features, like a fully functioning restroom, dishwashing station, and a table. Even though they weren't originally planning to stay at Dead Horse Point State Park, the potato cats don't regret their decision in the slightest and highly recommend a visit to the park (it's a must if you're close to Arches) , 11/10 paws. Views that will make you go meow~ : ...

Really Big Arches at Arches

Image
     After their humbling experience in Mesa Verde, the potato cats booked it to Arches National Park to see what all the hype was about in Utah. The cats were not disappointed as they got to see the famous (not to be confused with infamous) Delicate Arch, which is proudly displayed on a lot of Utah license plates. The sheer size of the arches at Arches left the cats awestruck, and they would gladly visit the park again if they had the opportunity to (and they probably will). Big arches with a side of cat:
