Goblin Valley

 Goblin Valley State Park in Utah is not a place you would happen to pass by accident.  It is a destination.  About an hour off of Interstate 79 west of Green River, you cross what looks like open dry country with nothing different up ahead.  Then, suddenly, you come to Goblin Valley State Park.

Trish and the Goblins.

There is no way to describe this place except by being here.  You walk down in and amongst hundreds of goblin like formations which you discover are solid rocks sitting atop clay like bases.  The more erosion, the more goblins.  We wandered around, almost lost among them all, with wonder.

This is a place to visit if you have a chance!
