We were headed to Moab and were planning on camping at the free BLM sites below the wall. It was mid-June and so hot that you couldn't touch the rock. The vistas were beautiful, but we spent the day looking out from the mesa and never saw a single car or truck drive by. Just endless expanses of empty desert, sage brush, and distant dirt roads. In the evening, we decided not to camp. We agreed the area was so desolate that we were almost certain to be abducted by aliens if we stayed the night. I was seriously freaked out. We drove to Grand Junction and got a hotel instead. I'm glad you had a good time! I have no plans to return. I stopped by here on a long roadtrip five years ago.
