Incredible weather. Nice hike, not too difficult or technical. The views are outstanding. Best hike in the area. Interesting ruins in the Lee's Ferry area.

Easy trail with beautiful views of the Colorado River. Interesting ruins from the old ferry days.

Hiked the first mile of the wash toward the river. Great rock features, but I came to a 70 foot pour off which would have required a lot of traversing up and down through rock ledges. I'm sure the rest of the hike is fantastic, but I wasn't in the mood for extended scrambling, so I headed back the other direction on the trail. (It's sort of hard to find anything that matches Buckskin Gulch anyway!)

Heading north and west in the wash was very interesting. I covered only about the first half mile and want to go back and find out where it ends in the mountains. Hope to do that and report back soon.
