Canyon Summer

There are various things I haven't shown here, so I'll play "catch up" with random moments from back before the Camp-out to after it.

Belden is having one of their festivals

The Eby Stamp Mill

Signs seen at Rich Bar

Cabin at Rich Bar; nice morning light

The six-sided house at Rich Bar, seen from above on the Utah Construction Trail

we found a mining shaft at the end of the trail

it goes in a long way, has rock walls with no apparent wooden beams, and the floor is covered with water to an unknown depth

I went to Chico to pick up Ayla and little Bentley and bring them home.
