Buckskin Gulch slot canyon.

One of the longest continuous slot canyons in the world.

One of the many adventures in the American Southwest is a hike in Buckskin Gulch.

...can get quite a muddy affair.

A short drive up the very steep Flagstaff mountain brought us to Lost Gulch Overlook, which offered incredible views spanning from Nederland to the jagged, snow-capped peaks of Rocky Mountain National Park.

 

This was a popular place for sunset and engagement photos in the city of Boulder, perhaps you still remember this Lost Gulch Engagement Photoshop, taken about six minutes before this one.

 

There were many people watching the sun go down, but everyone was quiet and respectful. We all stayed for a little longer hoping for an afterglow but there just wasn't one.

 

Thank you for your visit and support; be safe and be well!

Buckskin Gulch is a fine slot canyon in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in Arizona, but with a wider river botton at the canyon floor than some of the other slot canyons like Wire Pass and Antelope Canyon. It makes it an easy place to hike. I brought my sister along to give you the scale of the place.

A well timed vacation to the Northwest brought me to Montana the day after a westbound freight train derailed at Quinn's MT on the 4th Sub. This brought rare westbound and heavy traffic over the 10th sub as well as the use of manned helpers over Evaro Hill for the first time in almost a decade. Here we see a westbound stack train detouring across Marent Gulch with a 4 pack of Montana Rail Link SD70ACe's pushing the train up to Arlee. Photo taken April 5, 2023.

Le parc national des Pinnacles (en anglais : Pinnacles National Park) est un parc national des États-Unis se trouvant au sud de San José, en Californie, dans les chaînes côtières du Pacifique (Pacific Coast Ranges).

Il est constitué de formations rocheuses d'origine volcanique érodées. L'espace est autrefois classé sous le titre de monument national par décision de Theodore Roosevelt en 1908, mais le Congrès lui accorde le statut de parc national le 30 décembre 2012, après un projet de loi en ce sens proposé par le représentant démocrate Sam Farr. Le projet est avalisé par la signature de Barack Obama le 10 janvier 2013, ce qui en fait le plus récent des parcs nationaux des États-Unis.

Originally built for mining silver, Corkscrew Gulch is situated in the San Juan Mountains near Silverton, Colorado

We passed this old trestle bridge shortly before getting to the summit of White Pass. Couldn't see it through the fog until we were right on it.

At over 13 miles (21 km) long, Buckskin Gulch is the longest and deepest slot canyon in the Southwestern United States (and possibly the longest in the world)

The westbound Night Gas soars above the Marent Gulch trestle a few miles northwest of Missoula. This is on the 10th Subdivision, MRL's non-signalled secondary route between De Smet and Paradise.

Southeast Utah. The fifty mph wind gusts are trying to blow my brother away. Sand and dirt sting our faces. But a fine adventure…

The fragrance of the evergreens was like perfume as we hiked in Cucumber Gulch Preserve, a nature preserve in Breckenridge, Colorado. The trail descends in this view, through the tall spruce, pine and fir trees, opening in the background to the slopes of Breckenridge Ski Resort. There is a trace of snow visible in the background mountain top.

 

The town of Breckenridge is at an elevation of 9600 ft (2926m).

Two classic barns on Spring Gulch Road near Jackson, Wyoming share a beautiful view of the Grand Tetons in the distance. The creek and fences are a nice bonus. HFF

Alaska Railroad SD70MAC 4327 is captured mid span atop the famed Hurricane Gulch Bridge leading the northbound DEX train (Denali Express), dedicated train from Whittier to Denali Park operated under contract to Holland America Princess Cruise Lines.

 

This was the first of many successful visits to this secret spot where I'd eventually cut trees and open up into a campsite. To learn more read the long detailed caption from this same day here: flic.kr/p/2kr9BmA

All the cool scenery you could want in a slot canyon. There were narrow slots with high walls, great contrasts between the light and shadow, and pictographs. Look at the weather report before entering though...you would probably never survive a flash flood here.

There is a fence here. The tree acts as a fence post. There is another post and wires down heading toward the right bottom corner.

 

Happy Fence Friday!

 

Please pardon me for adding a rant. I am appalled that cattle are allowed to destroy this gorgeous landscape. The soil is mottled with their footsteps and their excrement littered everywhere. Plus they ramble over delicate rock formations. The remains of the ancient fences don't seem to corral the cattle in any way. In addition, horses are ridden frequently in the area, leading to more piles of excrement. On top of these insults, hikers are urged to bag and carry out their waste! The narrows are plagued with putrid water and high coliform count so humans are urged to be the solution. In my opinion, it would be more effective to remove the cattle and limit the horses, plus require the riders to bag their horses waste and carry it out. This is a more effective solution!

CWEPAH 23 exits tunnel 3, through Bull Gulch and into tunnel 2. This fill, originally a high trestle in D&SL days, washed out on 9.13.13 and the Moffat Subdivision was closed for a month.

It's dark in the gulch and there's lot of fog too!

  

Looking back at a long ago and particularly adventurous hike in Coyote Gulch. Shortly before the Jacob Hamblin Arch you reach these so-called Swiss Cheese Falls.

Scorpion Gulch is an old abandoned store at South Mountain Park in Phoenix, Arizona. This rock wall building no longer has a roof.

The bridge at Russian Gulch, a pleasant little nook north of Mendocino on the California coast, named, as you may guess, for the Russian seafarers who landed there.
