I thought I’d find a little break once down in Horsetank but the draw really never let up, just continued to lose elevation and really had no nice benches or flat ground.
Just filled with deadfall, debris and uneven Coconino Sandstone.
I also wonder what defines surveyors naming a place a “draw” versus a “canyon” because Horsetank in my opinion and experience should be labeled as a canyon from sheer size alone not to mention the hard slick rock, big elevation cliff walls and perennial pools.
Maybe because realistically Horestank is simply just a big draw or feeder canyon to the much more significant Sandrock Canyon.
Great temps and no wind throughout the day made for very pleasant hiking conditions.
Between Horestank, Sandrock and Calf Pen there is so much pristine rugged land just begging to be explored.
Looks small on the map but there’s a lot of country out there!
Picked up a new hobby to do with all my “wilderness treasure” after some locals kindly taught me their craft so I included a few photos of a few of the things I’ve made. |
