I's been about 30 years since I camped out there last. Not much time geologically. Not much change either. New signs. We drank a lot of Yukon Jack, not much coffee. The was a campfire. There were girls. Thanks for bringing back the memories.

That sounds like a good time.

wow, stunning photos! Looks like a great outing, albeit a hot dry one!
 
Nice post Reuben, I love the views from that area, the wind erosion is something else. Kit foxes are really cool animals. Having never seen one in person I would likely have lost hours right there. I need to get back out west with a camera next trip. I made it back to south Florida last time, now I need to see the deserts.
