Horseshoe Bend near Page, AZ.




Horseshoe Bend is just outside of Page heading south and the little sign takes you off the road to a little dusty parking lot and a trail leading up a desert hill with lots of sand and dirt for you to walk in! It takes about a mile of walking and you walk up to the edge of an awesome cliff or event horizon to an incredible bend in the Colorado river!My camera's lens could not capture the size of it! Pretty magnificent but not for those with a fear of heights. Marshall insisted on standing right on the edge of a thousand foot drop to get the perfect shot! Cool! The top picture has a rubber boat with a dozen people in it down on the river to give you the depth of the geological formation! Ciao..
