Like a good Yankee (who's lived in Phoenix for 8 years), my S.O. Andy had never been to the Grand Canyon....before Memorial Day 2008. We stayed in our Flagstaff base camp for the weekend and spent the Sunday hiking in the canyon.
Andy, the intrepid explorer at the head of the Grandview Trail.
On Monday, we had an other-worldly experience hiking Red Mountain, about 30 mi. north of Flagstaff. The area around Flagstaff was a hotbed of volcanic activity back in the day. At Red Mountain, all that remains from a volcanic explosion and subsequent lava flow is spectacular scenery.
And even some alien lifeforms...
