A 64-year-old man from North Carolina was injured in a fall during a solo hike in a remote section of Canyonlands National Park last week. Unable to walk, he faced long odds, since no one was aware of his plans or location. What followed was a tale combining grim determination and alert work by rangers.

Mineral Bottom Road will be closed at least until 2011 because of mudslide damage, Grand County officials have announced. Several switchbacks about 12 miles west of State Road 313 completely collapsed during a storm Aug. 19., officials wrote in a press statement. The road ends near Horsethief Point and offers northern access to the White Rim Trail in Canyonlands National Park and boat access to the Green River. Road repair funds likely will not be available until next year, according to the statement. Once funded, reconstruction is expected to take eight to 12 weeks.

In a corner of east Utah is a place so disconnected from the modern world that its fanciful features could be from another planet. Accessible only on foot, the Needles section of the Canyonlands national park has pink and creamy turrets, chimneys, gullies, mysterious canyons and weird formations. The trails twist, turn, scramble and climb around the fairytale formations, a paradise for hikers and anyone seeking solitude or spiritual inspiration.
