Marc's Public Blog - Hiking / Backpacking

After leaving Sedona/Flagstaff, quick stop at the Bonito Lava Flow. Didn't have enough time to stay due to a reservation at Lower Antelope Canyon and a 2h drive to get there:

Pretty route on the way, no time to stop, though:

Eventually arrived at Lower Antelope Canyon just in time for the tour with just minutes to spare:

first went to the wrong one

then found the correct one

it's a fair ways down

Then rain happened:

small rivers started to form :)

then it started raining for real ;)

Got exciting in very little time:

Getting tours last minute was hard, so I got one for wind canyon, but it also got flooded, so we went to secret canyon instead:

wider but nice

The nice bonus is the tour company had its own private access to Antelope Canyon:

While in the area, I tried to sign up for real "the wave" without success, but there was this very cool "the new wave" a few minutes outside Page, well worth the visit:

A few more pictures the next day before driving out:

Not far outside Page are Toadstools part of Grand Staircase Escalante NP. Cool walk:

And further up the road, there was Moqui Cave, fun weird quirky place:

this is very random :)

but just next door Sand Caves was a cool visit:

And that was it for the Page Area, next was Zion...
