Some shots from Lipan Point, where the trailhead was for the Tanner Trail.
You can see the Colorado River way in the distance.
Highly zoomed image of the canyon bottom. The bright beacn on the river at middle right is about where we camped on day 2 (actually it's the smaller beach just barely (nearly touching) north of that one. 15 miles away by trail.
There's still some snow in permanently shadowed regions near the top.
Looking past the Coconino Sandstone to the red Supai group beyond.
This massive rockslide occurred last fall, and they only finished repairing the trail and opened it up about amonth before our hike.
David O'Brien, and Jani's head peeking out from behind one of the "Triceratops Ridge" rocks.
An early view of the Watchtower, which we could see from just about every point on the whole 40-mile trail.
Strangely leeched rocks: colored on the outside, white on the inside.
Fuzzy cacti!
I'd given Jani the camera for awhile here, as hers was out of batteries. And I didn't need the extra weight for this hard downhill anyway.
