With extra time to kill before our flight home the next morning we decided to head to Sedona.  It had been chilly the last two days and Sedona had actually seen some snow at it topped out in the high 40's the day we were there.

We spent a little time on the Huckaby Trail from Midgely Bridge down to Oak Creek, hiked the Devil's Bridge Trail and tried to shoot some star trails above Cathedral Rock from the south side of Red Rock Crossing.

So much for the bridge!  I guess I'll boulder hop across Oak Creek.
