Day 3: We woke up, ate breakfast, and took a half mile jaunt down to the river for this breath-taking, serene scene.
After packing up our stream-side campsite, we headed uphill and caught a trail that led us over the bluffs.
The trail cut through a unique rock corridor
We visited this old log cabin. Since the outhouse wasn't operational, Joel chose the trees instead.

Scruffy (and unshowered) after a few days in the wilderness.
More dangerously-deep river crossings.
Amazing colors of water and rock
After crossing the river a few times, we traveled along it.
After looking for a campsite, we finally made our own right along the river. A bluff towered above us on the opposite side of the river.
Cooking up something good.

I love the layers of different colors and textures: rock, river, trees, bluff, trees, and blue sky.
