Stanley Canyon Part II
Finishing up my series on Stanley Canyon, the trail can be quite steep at times, even a little challenging.
Yes, the trail leads over the rock outcropping in this next photo (lean to the right if you're uncomfortable). Socks had no trouble, he just scrambled right up (and down on the way back).
The wildflowers were pretty.
At the top is a reservoir, but it was almost empty when we were there.
This photo shows a view back down the narrow canyon.
And here's another view.

Beautiful place. That reservoir is too good.
ReplyDeleteAh - just lovely!
ReplyDeleteGreat series from the place. I would love to spend some time there.
ReplyDeleteIt's great to hike and seek adventure. Caution must be strictly observed fir other hand. I used to hike several years ago. Now that I 'm in Russia, all I hike to are snow piles and ice hills :). Beautiful scenery and wonderful pictures.
ReplyDeleteJust stunning photos of Stanley Canyon, Al!

ReplyDeleteUm panorama maravilhoso da natureza!
Mas, até aí, onde é praticamente inacessível, a água também está secando!...
É sinal de alerta para todos nós.
Desculpe-me o desabafo.
Ótima quarta-feira!
