More Valley of Fires

 

P3280343

Managed to get in a strenuous hike on the lava flows before we left. There is a mile paved trail through the lava but you can hike anywhere. Saw a grassy area with a trail in the distance so we climbed our way to it.

P3280331

You can see how happy Debbie and I looked after we got to the top. Of course, going back down was even more fun. The best part was watching Jim pick numerous cactus spines out of his leg.

P3280348 At the end of the trail we came upon these interesting man-made rock formations.P3280349

This is a beautiful area and we hated to leave but another wind storm was predicted for Monday so it was time to move on.P3280332
