| Longs Canyon - Sedona, AZ (September, 2002) |
|
|
Our first hike in Red Rock Country was a
trail Mel picked out of a huge list. We were looking for
something without a big elevation change so we didn't kill ourselves
first thing. This one was only about 100 feet net change and 3
miles long so it wouldn't be too bad. It started in an open desert setting and then entered a "canyon." What they call a canyon in Arizona we call a valley or hollow. (I didn't want you picturing something like the Grand Canyon or a slot canyon.) The canyon walls were still very picturesque and they would have been even more so if the dry stream bed had had water in it. |
