Another abstract slot canyon image taken in Canyon X in Page, Arizona. (Actually, in thinking about it further, it probably looks like my colon after a Mexican dinner.)
Taken on a private tour of Secret Canyon near Page, AZ.

As I wonder the city, I'm always on the lookout for unusual Mail Slots.
My walks about the city of Philadelphia let me observe these treasure.
We don't have time to get here on all of our workshops, but it's always a pleasure when we do. Note everyone is up for the short hike, and of course we have to avoid days when there's a chance of rain in the mountains uphill.
Technically it's probable a natural bridge.
This location is described on page 112 of my 320-page guidebook "Photographing California Vol. 2 - South".
I can't wait to get back for my March workshops in Death Valley!
A long tunnel through sandstone rocks formed by running water over eons. There are openings in the top that let the light in and it is absolutely surreal. The sand shifts under your feet and makes it hard to stand up. This is in Utah, on Navaho land.
One of the twists in the Peek A Boo slot in Escalante. Organic swirls and black and white strata, like it's popular neighbor, Zebra slot. Off the beaten track but very well-traveled, at least the visitors here are appreciative of their environment. This was an incredible trip down south.

This is the slotted spoon that came with my cutlery set. I keep it and my extras in the drawer of my credenza.
During my recent trip to Utah, I decided to visit Zebra Slot Canyon to knock one more item off the to-do list. The roundtrip hike to the Zebra slot was about six miles but it was not a difficult one. The trail was well defined until Halfway Hollow but I could easily track the footsteps in the wash to reach the canyon entrance.
As few folks on the trail mentioned, the entrance to the canyon was filled with waist deep freezing cold water. That was not that bad but the hardest part was squeezing through a couple of tight spots. After 5-10 min of struggle, I could see this wonder.
I was the last one to visit that day and had the whole canyon to myself. I could even setup a tripod in that tight space. BTW, somebody dropped their tripod there. Please pick it up during your next trip :-)
