Spent a few days recently on Cedar Mesa, revisiting old friends and making some new ones. Southern Utah never disappoints... Days were warm, nights cool, & wind was blowing hard at times, especially on higher ground. Pretty pleasant in canyons though.

Canyon system near Point Lookout.

Nice shots, especially the Muley Point pics. My favorite camp spot.
Did you explore Pt. Lookout?

Muley has a fantastic view for sure.
I did not explore around the rim of Point Lookout much. Just the very top, not any bench below. And overland just where I walked to n from the canyon system west.
