Plans to backpack thwarted by some great Final Four Basketball, Lori and I took a leisurely sightseeing tour of Hovenweep, Natural Bridges, and Cedar Mesa.
No pics of Hovenweep visiting the Towers and Lowry Pueblo on April 4.
April 5:
A hike down into White Canyon and Armstrong Canyon viewing the "sites".

April 6:
Connecting Slickhorn One and Two as a fine loop. One note: there are several necessary dryfall or boulder jam bypasses going upcanyon in Slickhorn 2. They go upcanyon left and are intuitive. Souldn't be a issue for any familiar canyon hiker. Unfortunately, the NCAA Championship game that night was a big disappointment.
