Early light

Morning

It will take a day for us to get to the base of that red cliff. Then we have to ascend it tomorrow

Working on breakfast

Completing the  morning ritual

Packing up

Heading over the top

Across the top before another descent

Slickrock.  Heading for the read cliff in the background

Old man hiking–Say what?

Heading up again

On the way over to another canyon

Up the slick rock

Good grip

On top again

Heading to the bottom of that red cliff

Down the boulder field. Carefully

Slow and steady

A break for some water & bannock

Hanging garden at the spring

Heading up the slickrock again

Coming out of another valley again

Taking a break on top

The Mother and Child formation

We have to get to the top of that tomorrow

A supper time dessert treat

Are you tawkin’ to ME?

Looking back towards where we started in the morning

End of the day for hillbillies camping in the desert
