we head to the Grand Canyon and wait for shuttles |
we enjoy the shuttle ride, even if the driver has a low tolerance for talking |
we get split up, so there is time to hang around |
out on rock |
yes, I confirm, this is rock, not stone |
the acid test |
the switch backs near the top of the Kaibab trail |
finally a straight away |
before the fall |
I feel your pain |
cross bedding |
actually not as bad as it looked! |
watch your step |
hero shot |
lessons |
the ever studious andrew |
the look out |
the power house |
the pensive |
one third of the way down |
waiting on a pretty corner |
we descend |
looking for chicks on the tonto platform |
descending the ridge |
it is a long way down |
don't ever run on trails |
mystic descent |
do you think we can fly? |
Toby checks out the shale |
cactus flower view of the canyon |
don't touch the thistle |
I tell you, eat herbs |
crossing to Cedar point |
where we study |
and pose |
some people refuse to leave cedar point |
the donkey |
the climb |
water on the climb |
shade on the climb |
last cutbacks |
we wander between shuttles |
lessons on faults |
the ever studious andrew |
intruding granite |
very old rocks! |
more lessons |
a condor on wing |
Condors hanging out |
