Made for an exciting time, though!   Cate: My son and I hiked an even tougher trail this time around, and as we scrambled up slabs of barren rock towards the top there were bits of vegetation along the way. And unbelievably, at the very top (2704 feet up)? A hummingbird. Intrepid: We had it all: hail, blazing sun and everything in between! Made for an exciting time, though!

I can imagine how wobbly those legs must have been after the the climb back down. Love lupins, they seem to sprout up in the oddest places, even on strenuous trails like this one.

Good luck with the college tour. It's a great time of year for a visit. Not too hot, not too cold. Have fun and take lots of photos for us! :) Sounds like fun… Good luck with the college tour.

Weather is always the deciding factor, isn't it? I'm seeing high wind warnings for the day we plan to hike the Grand Canyon and am wondering if I can switch our plans around!   Donald: I'm better with bugs than I am with mice and bats. And yes, there are stories to back me up on that! Suzanne: I remember your journey (and all the wonderful photos!). Weather is always the deciding factor, isn’t it?

I remember that I have read somewhere the words "Camelback Mountain". I was in Sedona for 2 days, it's just beautiful! And then of course I saw also the Grand Canyon - but, to go to photograph the Antilope Canyon was the weather not good enough, so we decided to drive on. I'll be back reading and looking to the pictures, Heather. Thanks for sharing.

Sedona and the Grand Canyon will be return trips for us (love them!). It will be our first time to Antelope Canyon. From the southwest to the east, huh? That's a dramatic change in geology and just about everything else, I imagine! Rainfield: I don’t mind ‘em on a trail or in my yard, but bugs are not to cross the threshold into my house!

I lived in Arizona for seven years and can still see in my mind's eye all the rugged, spectacular beauty of its mountains and deserts. Sedona is so beautiful. Have a fabulous time!

This is quite true for me too. “If I’d spotted it creeping across my carpet, I’d have crushed it into a paper towel with a shiver and no shame”. This is quite true for me too.
