Well my original plan was to hike the enitre length of the canyon with some friends, setting up a shuttle arrangement with our vehicles. However, they ended up getting sick and had to cancel. So I headed out solo Saturday afternoon, found a flat place to camp with my Jeep, then headed out hiking in the morning.
There is a narrow section in the gorge just south of the Goat Canyon junction where it seems that the CCC just skipped in their tamarisk removal efforts. Just after that spot, its all clear again. Anyways, I still need to explore the southern area of the gorge more. From what I've seen from Daren's trips, its still fairly chocked with vegetation.
I always see or discover something different on these hikes and this one was no exception. Beside some low flying aircraft buzzing my campsite, I came across two sheep carcasses, pottery shards, and a pictograph cave. It was a wonderful weekend spent in the desert!
