Comb Wash & Cottonwood Creek, Utah - April 13, 2007 (Re-run)

 There is also a wash on the western side of Comb Ridge, appropriately called Comb Wash, and a dirt road that runs parallel to the wash and the ridge.  From the road, there are good views of the ridge that show why it reminded folks of a rooster's comb.  There are also many petroglyphs along the road, but I wasn't aware of them on this trip, so didn't make any stops other than taking scenic photos.















While Comb Wash Road ends at Highway 95, another road nearby leads north and passes Cottonwood Creek, a permanent stream that runs out of the Abajo Mountains.  The volume of water in the creek depends on how much rainfall has occurred recently.  On this occasion, there was a pretty good flow in the creek.
