CHAPTER 9:

LOINCLOTH MAN

It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.

—André Gide; French author, Nobel Prize winner, fearless self-

explorer

Every May I go backpacking through the desert wilderness areas of southeast

Utah with two longtime friends of mine. It’s one of the most magnificent and

bizarre places I’ve ever been: giant, jagged, obscenely pink ridges of rock jut out

of the ground like huge slabs of raw meat; white, yellow, and purple towers of

sandstone stretch and twist into sculptures made of taffy; deep cracks in the

earth’s surface form cathedral-like slot canyons whose walls, smoothed over

from flash floods and sandstorms, change colors from moment to moment as the

sun’s rays shift through the narrow opening high above.
