Camping at Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah and Trip Update

A tent is illuminated from the inside as night falls over Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah.

First of all, this one is not from this current trip, but a past trip to the Moab, Utah area at one of my favorite relatively unknown locations, Dead Horse Point State Park. With Arches and Canyonlands National Parks right next door, it’s often easy to overlook a state park. However this one offers a view of the Colorado River and its canyons that competes with any national park. I’m expecting to pass through the area some time next week and will hopefully have some great new shots of Moab and its surrounding areas. I’ve been having a lot of fun here in Phoenix, Arizona catching up with a lot of friends and revisiting old hikes. I’ll finally be leaving on Monday though and beginning the last leg of the trip which I’ve been looking forward to most which will bring me through much of southern Utah.

Free Roaming Photography, Photography by Mike Cavaroc, is my portfolio and vision of the natural world. As a nature and wildlife photographer, I am striving to reach the angles of landscapes that haven't been documented before as well as finding the dramatic nature of wildlife in its natural state. As a result, every animal photographed on this website was done so in its wild and natural habitat.

Based in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, I thoroughly explore the wonders of Grand Teton National Park and its surrounding areas, including the Gros Ventre Wilderness, Yellowstone National Park and much more.

I've come to love this region much more than anywhere I've lived, and with your helpful support, I can continue to give back to this community that keeps me enthusiastic each and every day. Read more...
