Out in the Upper Antelope Slot Canyon today...kilt is USA Kilts Caledonia tartan in Semi-Trad. A perfect choice for a hot day. Dim, but gives a bit of a hint of the majesty of the slot canyon - for the geologists its carved through Navajo Sandstone by Antelope Creek. Flash floods bring all sorts of debris into the canyon - some, like this log, gets stuck until the next flood. Difficult to get good pics inside the canyon due to dim light. This shows a typical sandstone wall. At the end of the canyon those of us with claustrophobia are relieved and likely to climb up a rock and do a little jig. Man's gotta hitch up his kilt and courage for the trek back through the canyon. Back at the starting point its time to mount up for a VERY bumpy 3 mile ride down the wash to the parking lot. A last look....

Awesome pics Ron. I wish I could get down your way some time.

Awesome pics Ron. I've always liked Northern Arizona and the Four-Corners areas you visit. I really need to get back there some time.
The grass is greener on the other side of the fence...and it's usually greenest right above the septic tank. Allen
Judging by the sky, it looks like a good day to be hiking a slot canyon.
Great pictures Ron. Thanks much for sharing with us.
I am hooked on desert trekking, kilted. We go for a trip every spring.
Again...Great Pics! Keep'em coming.
