Day 4...Part Uno...
Headed to "Spooky" and "Peekaboo" trail head to do some slot canyon exploring with the dog. Unfortunately, we got a little lost on an unnamed side canyon, but still had some fun.
Weird thing was the digital camera started acting funny... but we didn't realize until we got home. Added some odd color to the photos we snapped. Kind of makes them interesting though. All the purple isn't natural... maybe we were in "Spooky" slot after all. Ooooh... scary.
Getting tighter:
Girl having fun:
You want me to go through there??:
It was a struggle getting the dog over and through some sections of the canyon. She was bushed by the time we got out. Decided to head North from Escalante and hike "Upper Calf Creek Falls".
Terribly pieced together pano of the trail head:
Well worth the steep hike down:
Not a soul here but us
:
Once you've had your fill at the bottom, a shorter secondary hike will let you look down from the top.
Long way down:
"Just a few more steps backwards for the perfect shot...":
Upper swimming hole:
Unique rock markings:
This one looks like the boulder itself is rusting:
The hike out is STEEEP... but I finally made it. Plan was to travel on through Boulder and into "Capitol Reef" park...
