I had seen pictures of Sedona before, but nothing prepared me for the magnificence and grandeur It's so frustrating to try to capture this on camera. It's nearly impossible, but I've tried to pick shots that give some sense of the scale of these rock formations, and how they absolutely embrace the entire town. It's probably one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. Plus, the town is very hip!
Native American ruins that date back thousands of years.
Still, trying to capture the scale of these rocks. You feel like you're in the land of giants.
Rare pictographs on the dwelling walls.
A moody moment in the valley.
Everywhere you turn, it's gorgeous and just WOW.
Driving into town is a knock-out.
Hike on "Airport Trail" three miles of breathtaking views and treacherous footing at times.
Juniper trees are abundant and can go into a "spiral" ostensibly because of "energy vortexes".
The juniper trees have the biggest and most amazing bounty of berries that carpeted underneath the trees.
Choochi cools down.
The town is dwarfed by these mountains, in every direction.
Staying in Sedona for a couple more days, and more hikes with friends Paula and Scott......who let me stay the first night I was here in Cottonwood..... THANK YOU! Otherwise, I'm boondocking in the State Forest here five miles outside of town, and in the middle of all this splendor. For free. Yup.
Gorgeous pics! The colors so good for the eyes 😃
