The Team charges past The Guardian Tree at the trailhead.

I am pretty sure this is a repeat. Tough. The Renewed Topographics: Cathedral Rock 2023.

Mickeymorphosis. What is Disney to do now?

Cathedral through ocotillo.

The Ocotillos love this spot. But, they have shut down for the winter.

The Official Photography is Boring Howl.

Skinny house in the valley.

Full classic Sedona landscape.

Russ vs ocotilla garden. A prickly affair. Choose steps wisely.

The trail has many dangers. Ffurther along we encounter a massive praying mantis/ant eater - previously believed to exist only in paleolithic times.

I think that's Mount Schuerman. I may get strong enough to try that trail in a couple of weeks.

Ella eyes an alternate way down. Silly Ella.

A micro slot canyon.

Ella Odd Sock had a bath just 3 days ago to clean up some of the red dust. Didn't last long.

For over 15,000 years, Paleolithic Humans used this rock as the official measure of 1/2. Many copies were made for commerce, but in the event of a dispute, the parties were required to travel here to resolve their differences with the Official Rock. As a result, their time was remarkably free of warfare, thanks to this simple agreement.
