Gateway to the Oak Creek West Fork Trail
|
|
|
 |
These rocks are seeing some serious duress!
|
|
 |
A closer view
|
|
 |
The trail is pretty easy to hike with very little change in elevation
|
|
 |
You can see how the creek undercuts the rock
|
|
 |
The creek used to be undercutting higher up. That's how a canyon is made!
|
|
 |
Leaning rocks
|
|
 |
One of many cliff faces
|
|
 |
How long did it take this little stream to make this canyon?
|
|
 |
Can you see an image of the Virgin Mary on the cliff?
|
|
|
|
 |
The rocks form layers like onions
|
|
 |
Bright green pond scum!
|
|
|
|
 |
In a few places, the trail goes through the trees next to the creek
|
|
 |
Some red rocks catch the reflection of sunlight from the cliff above this overhang.
|
|
|
|
 |
Not all the rocks are red
|

 |
A little blue sprinkled in with the red rocks and green leaves
