Larry Harpe walking a Highline across the notch in Bridger Jack Mesa. This photo doesn't capture the strong updraft that he had to deal with, but the video I recorded does. I was about a quarter mile away, and 300 feet below. Photographed October 21st and 23rd, 2004. Click the link below to view all the photo gallerys of Highline and more.

    The Colorado Plateau is centered around the four corners area. It ranges in elevations from 4,000 feet to over 12,000 feet. The high deserts around Moab are just a small part of it, but a very popular part. As a result of the uranium boom in the 1950's there are roads chiseled out along cliffs and across the mesas on BLM lands that would not exist otherwise. If you go exploring you will need a rugged vehicle, but be prepared to walk back to civilization in case something breaks. Did I mention carry lots of water.
