Having driven by this park many times, it has been on my radar for decades;
so it's about time that I paid a visit, with friend Gary to assist me.
The 6-dollar entry fee gets us a nice map. One of the closest
features shown is a short walk to a little slot canyon, which sounds like a
good place to start.
The trailhead
As advertised, a short quarter-mile walk gets us over to the cliff face and the entrance to a tiny slot.
Jenny Canyon is quite slender
Looking up
A Halloween face?
There are mini-arches all over the place
End of the line, after just a hundred yards
A private memorial plaque has been installed inside the canyon, yet it says nothing about the nature or the location of the demise of the loved one.
Gary reads the plaque
Great textures in the walls
Across the way is a nifty balanced rock; I hope it stays there
A mile or so up the park road, Gary and I find a picnic table under a tree and have a nice lunch.
Across the valley is an interesting mixture of black lava and red sandstone.
§: You might as well enjoy this pleasant little diversion,
because it's there and because it doesn't take much time at all.
