Picket Wire Hike

My wife and I hiked the Picket Wire Canyon this past weekend.  We had hoped to see some dinosaur tracks.  Here’s a picture of the canyon from the top of the trailhead.  The hike down is a 250 foot drop.  We should have realized that it would be harder on the way up with mountain bikes.

Here’s a picture of the mud on the trail.  The previous day’s rain made a few parts of the trail a little too difficult for riding.  It would be a lot worse once the rains came.

We found an old building (church?) along with a cemetary.

We also saw a cute little porcupine waddling across the trail.  It wasn’t very happy to see us.

We ended up reaching the dinosaur tracks but didn’t get to see them.  We couldn’t quite figure out how to cross the river and the lightning started getting close.
