I originally intended to loop hike all the way around Coffee Flat Mtn. via Whiskey Springs but I got as far as Upper LaBarge Box where the thick vegetation, running low on water and quite literally. . . almost stepping on a snake (not a "buzzworm" thankfully) forced me to turn around and head back to the Peralta Trailhead. Still a good hike but I was "zooming" on adrenaline from the snake encounter! I love the Supes!!!

Can't remember exactly why I decided to do this hike in the brain-searing heat of summer but it was still fun anyway. I thought I heard that hiking below the rim is no longer allowed, if thats true then I'm glad I went when I did! Spectacular formations and colors and I understand that there is supposedly a ghost that haunts the canyon!
