Monday Adventures

Every Monday, Brenda and I do our hike, just us girls out in the wild, and today we'd called a rain day, until the clouds departed early, and we decided to go after all.  I met her at Caribou Corner, and we walked the highway to Misery Bar, then down to the river gold mining claim, then up and out and back down to the car. I am sore tonight; whether from the rough footing down by the river, or from the highway flatness, or maybe because Brenda quick-marched me along the road, I don't know.  My miles-per-hour ratio was very good today, I must say.

The Jackass Creek Waterfall returns to Tobin

This is just part of what fell off the cliff at Mile Post 11

This is the slide at Mile Post 11, which had dumped bigger loads in years past.

another day, another glimpse of the train through the Honeymoon tunnels

This boat is now full of rain water.  It sits a'ready down at Misery Bar

We call this Sam's waterfall, or Fountain Curve; just opposite the road down to Misery Bar

The long bit of rock wall edging the highway between Misery Bar and French Bar
Just for the fun of it, I show you what rain does to our canyon
