Canyon Fatigue

At Canyonlands National Park in Utah, I exceeded my brain's capacity for storing views of canyons, and my body shut down. Eventually after freeing up space by deleting memories of calculus lectures at university, I was able to reboot and resume my tourism.

Incidentally, this is the location of the gruesome story of Aron Ralston who had his arm trapped by a falling boulder nearby, and after 127 hours, escaped by cutting it off with a knife. Luckily I didn't suffer the same fate, although I did crush my finger slightly when closing the glovebox of my car, so I can certainly understand what he went through.
