The Toadstool Hoodoos - Kanab, UT
Striking a Pose in a Parallel Universe:
Our Toadstools Adventure:
We started our epic journey through a world we never imagined in a deep red desert, surrounded by camel-shaped rocks and other wild formations, each one more bizarre than the last. As we wandered further, the red melted into white, leading us through a mini slot canyon - a natural playground full of hidden treasures. After reaching the top, we met the bridge, a stunning, all-white rock formation that felt like a gateway to another planet.
And beyond it? A white paradise! A parallel universe of smooth, sculpted white stone, so ethereal it felt like walking through a dream. I was unstoppable, capturing macro and micro details, completely lost in the beauty of it all.
Our adventure was so wild and unreal we nearly forgot our main mission: to create our Valentine's Day postcard of Nora and Scout. The reality? One of them was born for the spotlight and the other was very much over it. The real star of the day? Scout. While Nora declared a fashion strike over her oversized glasses, Scout stepped up and owned the moment, posing like a pro.
Then - tragedy! My phone died so no more pictures for me. (Nora, of course, saw this as sweet, sweet freedom). Not to worry, Dave still had his camera and continued capturing our journey.
We ended the hike in the most epic way - by sending the drone up to capture the vastness of the landscape, where the Toadstools stand like ancient sentinels frozen in time.
The Toadstools Trail may be a short 1.7 mile round trip, but who's counting when there's magic everywhere? What should've been a 40 minute stroll turned into a 3 hour adventure of endless exploring and snapping photos!
And that's a wrap on this adventure! Have a wonderful Valentine's Day!
But don't wander too far, there are more epic explorations coming your way weekly. Stay tuned!
With love,
The team!
