Spring Creek Hike near Kanarraville
Yesterday I was invited to join my sister-in-law Barbara Aikens and a few of her friends for a short hike up Spring Creek Trail above Kanarraville. The weather was perfect and the wildflowers were in bloom as we started the hike. After following the creek for a short while we began to wind our way into a narrow slot canyon with high carved sandstone walls. The reflected light cast a warm glow on the walls and the canyon floor.
Larry and Gwen discuss the weathered rock formations as they rest in the cool shade of the sandstone canyon
Since I left early, I had time to run by Quail Lake to check out the fishing, and stopped to do this little sketch of the arch near Red Cliffs that you can see clearly from the north end of the Lake.
While waiting for the group to arrive I sketched this drawing of the entrance road to the trailhead.
