A Different Hike

Justin read about an abandoned railroad track, turned trail, so we took a trip.

The rails were definitely in disrepair

Lots of overgrowth, 

fallen trees,

and even fallen rock (Nate was sure they could move that rock, but they could only rock it).

In the man made canyon: we found a waterfall,

and tall rock walls, 

with amazing striations

and gigantic geodes

Believe it or not, this wasn’t the worst stretch, since there was a gravel
walk around.  I was not a fan of places where the gravel washed and we needed to walk on the wooden ties.  The kids did much better on those than I did.

We had the entire place to ourselves.  No one else came through the whole time we were out there.
