Back to the canyon.

This a view from one rim across the canyon to the rim on the other side. Canyon is about 2 miles wide at this point.


Phillip found that there were bears and cougars down in the canyon. A bear was through here not long ago.

This juniper was torn to shreds by an elk rubbing the velvet off his antlers. A lot of small pinion pines have had all the limbs stripped from them by the elk.

When I was up on the rim I saw where the bears have tipped over a lot of old tree stumps from the long ago logging operations, in search of grubs. I see the tracks and hope to never see the animals.
