The Original Trip Report on ADVENTR.CO
On Sunday morning I was up shortly before sunrise and quickly taking down camp so I could get an early start on the hike. I wasn't planning on taking any photos at sunrise, but when I saw the sky start to light up I quickly grabbed my camera out of the Jeep and ran over to the nearest outcrop of sandstone above my camp. I'm glad that I did!

The distant cliffs were lit up intensely for just a moment and I'm glad I was able to catch it.

When I reached the Collins Canyon trailhead after a short drive, the sun broke through the clouds briefly. After this I wouldn't see sunlight again until I was hiking back.

There were plenty of pictographs to be found along the way.

I spotted these two granaries high above the wash and managed to find a way up to them.

A reflection of The Narrows in a pool of water just beyond the small slot.

Hiking back up along a large dryfall in Collins Canyon when the overcast sky finally started to clear up.

I also visited an old cowboy camp that had many relics left over from the early 1900's.
