Hope road trip 2018
Sedona, AZ
The people you see on the bridge was a group of friends that left after we did and passed us on the trail. About a half mile after that we found them sitting in the darkness in the middle of the trail waiting on us. They had not brought flashlights and could no longer see in the dark. Thank good ness we were still on the trail with lights. yikes!
Grand Canyon,
We got back up to the top of the trail head and decided to hang our legs over a rock and watch the sunset. These Turkish people were in front of us on the very edge of the canyon drinking Turkish coffee and smoking hookah waiting for the sun to set. This couple you see in this photo just walked on down and started talking to them so the guys shared their coffee and they all watched the sunset together, took some selfies, and had a good time. The couple was hiking down into the canyon the next day.
It was really cool to see the camaraderie and thats one thing I really love about hikers.
The girl in this photo was barefoot and just hopped down this gravely, rocky path like it was nothing, like she had shoes on or something. David and I were awed!
