We were picked up at our hotel by Blaine, who was our tour guide/driver for the day. We soon found that the 4x4 tour was more exciting than anticipated. After a back way entrance to Arches, we traveled over rough terrain and saw things that most others visiting Arches will never see. Blaine prepared a nice lunch, then we were into Canyonlands, again from the back door. He drove the White Rim Trail and Shafer Trail, and told us to "trust in Blaine", which we most assuredly did! We are an older couple, the other couple with us quite a bit younger, but Blaine was able to accommodate both of us, since we were in need of a little more guidance on some hiking trails. We saw more than we ever expected; it was quite an experience for a 60ish couple from the Midwest! Very much recommend!
