On the way back to Albuquerque:
Sandstone Bluffs overlook.
Three creatures looking over the edge.
Another view.
Mountains in the distance.
Another view of the bluffs.
Another view of the mountain.
More sandstone.
Natural arch.
Layers.

All in all it has been a fun trip. Long hikes, short rests, 600+ pictures, but fun. Now all I have to do is get home.

The weather in Dallas, TX has messed up the flights thru there. A common problem. They've cancelled or delayed many flights. I'm now delayed another hour but still should make the flight to Charlotte.

Great photos, Richard! I'm guessing you'll have a lot of software time when you get home?

Thanks for posting these and I hope the trip was everything you expected - except the going home delays!

Great photos, Richard. This is one amazing rock. And to think that much of what you saw may well have been under water at one time.
