We arrived around 8 am and the sun wasn't up good yet.
|
|
|
Walk registration table had lots of activity going on.
|
|
|
As we pass the lake the sun is beginning to top the hill and gives the reeds in the lake a colorful glow.
|
|
|
Farther along the sunshine has reached the whole hill beyond the lake.
|
|
|
Ed and I were still walking in the shade of the hills.
|
|
|
A trail off to our left (not the one we walked on).
|
|
|
This is the trail we are following.
|
|
|
The hills above us now have sunlight on them.
|
|
|
Yep, we are still in the shade.
|
|
|
That white glow off to our right is the dam's spillway.
|
|
|
Another view of our trail.
|
|
|
Robert is waiting at the checkpoint for us.
|
|
|
Yellow wildflowers along the trail.
|
|
|
A sign telling us the headquarters is back the other way.
|
|
|
We climbed this hill and then turned around and returned to the start.
|
|
|
It is now light enough you can see the white mixed into the red hillside.
|
|
|
Another view of the cliffs along the trail.
|
|
|
Coming from this direction you can catch a glimpse of the Pease River.
|
|
|
Didn't notice the pyramid when we were going the other direction.
