I spent 5 days in northern Arizona with
Bob and Csaba exploring the area.
From Los Alamos to Flagstaff. Cool desert
erosion.
Canyon de Chelly National Monument.
Pretty awesome place.
Hiking in Sedona. This is Schnebly road.
We found a vortex, but did not feel its
energy.
 .
Agave plants in Arizona are amazing.
Their stem grows to about 12 feet, and their base is
beautiful
Mitten Ridge trail vista.
View from the Airport Mesa over Sedona
Here is the base of an Agave with no stem
growing yet.
Brins Mesa trail. We watched an
impressive sunset, then ran to the car.
Next morning we flew north over the
volcanic cinder cones.
Later in the day, we will hike to the top of the one on
the right side.
Grand Canyon from 14,500 feet (4400 m)
Sedona Valley was beautiful from the air.
This is SP Crater that we are about to
climb.
The side was pretty steep and loose, but
offered great views.
This is the lava that flowed out of the
crater (I think 7,000 years ago).
With B-O-B on top.
We hiked on top while waiting for sunset.
Sunset was very nice.
We ended up renting a Nissan Armada,
which can fit 8 people. Huge SUV.
The next day we explored some desert
canyons on Zuni Indian Reservation.
Bob checking out the view.
Then we hiked around the Little Colorado
river...
which carves an impressive canyon.
Then we went to Grand Canyon for sunset.
We flew back to Los Alamos the last day.
This area was amazing and needs to be explored.
We did not see any roads, so it will be tough to get
here.
More cool desert features.
Another cool area.
Honey, which car should I take to work
today?
More desert features worth exploring.
Back over Canyon de Chelly.
Spider Rock.
Almost back home.
Here is the GPS flight track
Thanks guys for another great trip!!!
