Hall’s walls

This trip was actually only a couple days after returning from the Grand so a leisurely trip was in order.

Can’t feel too sorry for myself, though…I’m not the one who’s 7 mo. pregnant.  Suppose I can lend a hand down the shortcut route…

This bighorn ran back and forth mocking us much of the way down…

The Waterpocket Fold might be my favorite feature of the entire Colorado Plateau.  Insane variety and just about every canyon you step into or slickrock ramp you climb is guaranteed to be spectacular.

I love me a nice messy woodrat nest and this one was impressive.  All kinds of good stuff in there…

We chose the right days of the week for a wet hike.  After high 60s all weekend, the wind blew and temps dropped to freezing as we headed up Notom road and it was snowing by the time we were in Boulder for lunch.  You know what they say about the weather everywhere…
