View of the mountains from Cactus Cliffs
Looking SW towards the Dark Side and Sangre de Cristo mtns
High desert landscapes
Our last climb on Sat - Amiga (10b/c)
Liv loves napping in the sun
Cactus Cliffs Pano
Our Sat night campfire was warm and awesome
Campfire and pinetrees at night
Firelight on the desert scrub and bright stars
Moon and stars over our warm, happy tent
Sleeping under the desert stars
The campsite is beautiful on Sunday morning
Mark cooks b-fast:  donuts and sausage!
Juniper berries
Lookin up at Sand Gulch from our campsite
Wave clouds cover the mountains to our east
Beautiful lenticular wave clouds on the horizon
Liv is ready to hike to Sand Gulch!
Hiking through the arroyo
Desert rock, green bushes, red sand
Walking the arroyos below Sand Gulch
Deserts cliffs and trees
Kate rapping Times Square (5.8)
Our last climb of the day was a new route - maybe 5.9?
View towards the far wall of Sand Gulch
View from the warm, sunny cliffs
Bright, warm, blue skies
Kate enjoyed the warm weather a bit too much.
