Took these on my hike on Saturday....



 I took these of a dry river bottom.  The trail I was on is way above it.  Kinda scary but safe.

 You can see the gigantic volcanic rock and red rocks that have given way and fallen down to the river bottom.

 Walls of the slot canyon.  For those of you that don't know what a slot canyon is, it is a canyon with rock walls on both sides of you.  Narrow and the only thing you can see besides the rock walls is the sky above.
Mountain above the river bottom.  It was a beautiful day.
