After traveling across the country for five days, we finally arrived in
Flagstaff, Arizona Thursday afternoon. We're actually staying about 20
miles south of Flagstaff in Munds Park. The photos are from our first full
day spent driving through Oak Creek Canyon and seeing the sights in Sedona.
The weather is great and the views spectacular.
The city of Sedona itself is beautiful but for a lot of road construction.
Sedona opens out from Oak Creek Canyon into a wide valley. Everywhere you
look are these amazing red rock formations. We found an easy trail called
Margs Draw and took a late afternoon hike. The elevation is about 5000 feet
and the air if very dry. It was hot but there was a nice breeze most of the
time. Part way into the hike and coming back, we heard drums up in the
hills.
Before getting to Flagstaff, we took a side trip into the Painted Desert and
Petrified Forest National Park. I'll back track a little and post those
photos on my next blog.
