West Butte 12/14/2015
It is very windy today so we will drop into the slot canyon first.
This is a popular slot here.
It is getting narrower.
Watch above!
Interesting walls.
Getting up via truck drop-off.
Wind cave hill.
Natural bridge.
Looking back.
Now we have to cross several gullies.
So we can get into our next canyon.
This one is called The Abyss.
We cannot continue any further there is that fifty feet drop into abyss.
There is water below.
More ups.
This is the top of the canyon.
We are on the Butte so where is the top?
Our group.
Now it is down to Hawk Canyon.
Not much trail here.
Is Beth going to fly down?
More drops.
Made it also to the HC overlook. It is still windy.
We made it.
