One of several beautiful trout in the canyon stream. The water was crystal clear, as you can see.
In retrospect I should have taken many more photographs. I did pause to gaze around at the amazing scenery, I just didn't think to take the pictures. I should especially have taken more photos of the more verdant parts of the canyon and of the stream. Sorry, guess you'll just have to go see for yourself, and I'll try to do better next time.

Thanks for looking.
