Spend midday taking the forest service tracks off FR 131 in search of a trail down the cliffs to the river--before the Dec. 1 closure takes effect. I'd like to explore this area. The cottonwoods are yellow, there are ducks on the water and the fish are jumping! Alot of smoke coming over the mountain above Jerome. Despite my failure to find a track down to the water, it was a great way to walk and de-stress (after a tractor/trailer took off the entire right side of my car yesterday--totalled? but I wasn't hurt!)
