Beautiful by Wendy

I’d never heard of this place, but saw the sign as we were driving by, so we decided to stop. It’s a real gem. Gorgeous cliff formations.

Midnight in February under a full moon, we drove through on winding roads, headlights turned off. It was as quiet as falling snow and just as beautiful. We spent over an hour there, despite the fact that we were 10 hours into a car trip from Texas. It was one of the most magical and beautiful moments of my life.

The Black Canyon is a dark and mysterious place. Lose yourself in the depths of water carved darkness.

I don’t care what anybody says about the Grand Canyon…this crack beats that crack’s ass.

It's the altitude right? by hippie1427

We hiked down into the canyon from the visitors center. The trail leads downs a rock slide. It is very rugged. The altitude where I live is about 0 – 500 ft, and the altitude there is more like 5000 i think. I’m blaming that, because this trail is only a mile long, but it drops over 2000 ft. Going down took us 1.5 hours, and coming up took 3. I’m blaming the altitude. : )

Basking on the rocks by a mountain stream, surrounded by pine, canyon walls, and the odd fisherman? Priceless.
