Hollyford Road always offers an interesting drive and always time well spent. The weather wasn't on our side on the day, but it was a great day to putter down the road.
I was hiking in the small slot canyon below just the day before. You definitely need to monitor the weather when considering when to hike a slot canyon.
I can't wait to get to Death Valley and see how it has changed since the big, near-record rain event last month (August 2022). I probably won't get there until October.
Even though the Grand Prismatic Spring itself is mostly obscured by mist, the whole area is otherworldly and is another reminder of the beauty, uniqueness, and wonder of the Earth we all share. Happy Earth Day!

The Spring runoff and rains have swollen Brush Creek to capacity and revealed truly vibrant colors only truly enjoyed this time of year.
The Firehole River cascades through a narrow rock opening, flowing downward to Firehole Falls in Yellowstone National Park. A lot of snow remains so the Spring runoff will apparently remain brisk for some time to come.

Taken while giving my great contact Ben the grand tour of my personal little crickside playground.
I have to take a break from all these Arizona shots. Green is happening around me.
I sat here on a rock and ate my lunch, holding onto it tight to keep the wind from blowing it away. The wind was strong and constant, but at times it would stop for a few seconds and in that time I could hear the trickle of the water running down the rock face and the birds singing. There were huge birds (hawks I think) playing in the thermals but I'm not quick enough to get a good shot of them. So, I sat and enjoyed the moment as I listened to the roar of the wind and watched the hawks. And yes, the water is red. I guess that's iron?

The Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park is the largest hot spring in the United States.
It was noted by geologists working in the Hayden Geological Survey of 1871, and named by them for its striking coloration. Its colors match the rainbow dispersion of white light by an optical prism: red, orange, yellow, green, and blue. The vivid colors in the spring are the result of pigmented bacteria in the microbial mats that grow around the edges of the mineral-rich water. The bacteria produce colors ranging from green to red. In the summer, the mats tend to be orange and red, whereas in the winter the mats are usually dark green. The deep blue color of the water in the center of the pool is particularly intense because of the high purity and depth of the water in the middle of the spring.

Chalk Creek is a stream flowing east out of the Sawatch Mountain Range in Chaffee County, Colorado. Mount Antero borders the southern side of the creek and Mount Princeton borders the northern side. The headwaters of the river are located at the Continental Divide, and it drops about 4300 feet in 27 miles, most of it in the first 10 miles. The creek empties into the Arkansas River at the village of Nathrop, Colorado.
