Familiarize with the map first.
Rim Rock Trail to Welcome Center and down the canyon.
(Restroom is very handy as well!)
I snapped a few pictures as I walked.
You don't have to go down to enjoy the views.
Marveling the natural beauty.
Started to descend from this point on.
Looking north
We are going down there, do you know what is that green patch?
Answer at the bottom of this website.
This is The Chute Trail, a short cut to get down but very rough for me!
The Canyon Trail is four times longer but much gentler slope.
Look at the water!
Misery Ridge Trail - "I am not going there, period!"
Bring extra water - 16 oz per hour!
Bridge Limited to Single File Foot Traffic! No horses.
This is the River Trail (easy and flat)
The ROCK upclose!
Can you see a climber?
The River Trail continues....
It's getting warm and time to go back up.
On the foreground you see the Canyon Trail
Back to the Rim Rock Trail (south side)
Looking north
Finally, I found my retirement bench!
Then we went to North Point, before we call it for the day!
The view looking south.
The answer to the green patch - HELICOPTER PAD
I guess it is used to transport any injured rock climbers
