Entering the front desk area of Red Ledges Inn, I meet 2 travelers wanting to register. No staff around. They said they've been waiting 10 minutes, but nobody there. I go outside and look around the property looking for a staff person to check us in. Nobody, another 10 minutes. Finally, an employee pulls up and runs inside to help us. The check in process for the first guests takes a while. This gives me a chance to look over the place. It looks okay. The clock on the wall behind the front desk isn't working, but there is a list of hiking trails posted on the wall which interests me. My check in goes quicker. Staff is friendly and attentive to my needs. THE ROOM: Dirty. old stained rug, no cups for brushing teeth, and 1 bar of soap for a double occupancy room. The heater works and there is warm water to wash up in after a day of sweating through slot canyons. I will enjoy a cold beer as I edit the images of today's journey. And the next time I'm exploring southern Utah, I will pass by the Red Ledges Inn.
