i've always liked the photos from sycamore canyon
thought pam might be up for a water hike and she was in

we did the granite box loop that rick vincent often frequents
a short drop into the canyon through catclaw and foxtails
very lush canyon with darker reddish rocks at this point
we did a mix of boulder hopping and wading until getting to the "box"
this part was beautiful and reminded me of the jug
pam did a few waterslides and i did one or two
i had one full swimmer that was a little chilly, but really the water was quite nice
warm enough temps to enjoy the pools
had fun clambering around the white granite rock
took our time, a lot of photos and a couple of breaks to relax and enjoy the unique scenery
not sure we took the best route out, will have to ask rick about that
would like to do more of the canyon sometime
thanks for doing this with me, pam, and for driving
nice hiking with you again
