| no partners | | Writing report, better late than never 6-27-2025. Finally, I made it. One word for our trek: WINDY. Wow, but we made it. Very cold too as we went in the AM.
The trail is all paved. They had a nice sign up for Christmas so I got a photo of the cousins before we headed on down. It was hard to even look around as the wind was so fierce. Even when we finally made it to the Lookout, it was hard to get pictures without the fear of being blown away. I even tried a selfie.... need more practice as I seem to have no clue how to do this  .
Hiking back up I stayed with Connie as the uphill is a little tough on her. That's when she told me she hates hiking. This was news to me though, as in Montana, she seemed to really enjoy it but, that's been awhile.
We decided to drive as far as the LeFevre Overlook since the weather was not going to cooperate with prolonged outdoor activity. So I came up with the following:
- Apache Pass Vista.
Navajo Bridges including walk across and back, look around VC.
AWESOME lunch at Lonely JackRabbit Restaurant.
Lee's Ferry, walk around stone houses.
House Rock Valley Overlook.
Jacob's Lake stop for cookies (not too many available this time of year  , but good nonetheless.)
LeFevre Overlook.
(from 89a view of Shinumo Altar - my research: great article, fascinating geology! who knew?! https://earthly-musings.blogspot.com/20 ... altar.html [ photo ] )
We got home just before it got dark. It was a good full day.

For me, sometimes it's just as much about the journey as the destination.
Oh, and once in awhile, don't forget to look back at the trail you've traveled. |
