Now that Im near done processing the 1500+ photos I took on my recent vacation to Arizona, Ill share a few here.
The Grand Canyon as seen from the viewing platform at Desert View on the South Rim drive. Seeing the Canyon in person is a must see. Pictures DO NOT do it justice.

Another shot of the Canyon a little later in the day. This time from Moran Point. My 2 brothers and I climbed down the side of the Canyon and out to a rock formation that was only accesible by doing so. VERY dangerous, but totally worth it. Deadly drops all around but a great thrill nonetheless. These are some of the best places and a limited number of spots to actually see the Colorado River at the base of the Canyon.

A shot of the ABSOLUTE VASTNESS of the Canyon. It seems to go on forever.

The next morning, we went down from Flagstaff to Sedona...one of the most beautiful and photogenic places in the country. We sent the women shopping and the guys went hiking to a place called Chicken Point. This is a shot of Sedona from half way up the hike.

Now at Chicken Point, the view was amazing. Well worth the time invested in hiking with camera gear on.

Dont know why, just like the shot of this bridge on Route 89 outside Sedona near Oak Creek. Its at least a few hundred feet to the riverbed from here.

Though we werent supposed to (trail closed for some reason) we ignored the signs and hiked down to this spot along Oak Creek, a few miles up the road from the bridge in the previous post. This is my younger brother Ryan and I, just showing the size and scope of where we were. Its probably a 50-60 foot drop to the river below from where we were standing.

And of course, we climbed down the rock facade to the riverbed. This is right under where we were standing in the previous post.

Last one is a shot down Oak Creek, from the other side of the river. My older brother and I crossed the river by carefully walking across the rocks sticking up out of the river. Problem was, they were at such an angle, that we found it was a 1 way trip that way. We ended up walking a few hundred feet up river, taking our shoes and socks off, and barefooting it wading through the FREEZING cold water back to the other side. Guess we are an adventurous bunch.
Hope you like the pics. It was an unforgettable trip for sure. Any comments, good or bad are welcome.

Great pictures Kev. my wife looked at these and laughed because many years ago when she was out there on business, i flew to meet her and we went to the canyon for a couple of days. all she did was bitch on the way up about a big hole in the ground until she got there... now she wants to go back

Well, I guess Arizona is a popular place this time of year! I was there last week and here are some of the shots that I got.
