A few days after I hiked in Sedona with my mom and Chereese, Brooks and I took the boys back to do the same hike. I loved the hike and wanted to show it to Brooks, plus we wanted to get to the end this time. It did not disappoint. The drive in was beautiful and the hike was perfect. We may need to make this an annual October tradition.
The hike starts with a short stroll to get back into the canyon. Then we crossed over a stream numerous times as we hiked. The boys loved navigating the rocks over the water. We had a few minor slips, but no major spills. At one point the canyon opens up a bit and there is a nice spot to stop and take a break. There is a small amount of running water there. The boys could have stayed there all day throwing sticks and leaves into the water and watching them float downstream.
The leaves on the trees were starting to change. It got more and more beautiful the farther back into the canyon we got. We have missed all the hiking we did in Washington and this reminded us of that a bit. It was good to get out and explore. What an amazing world we were given!
