We got started about 10 again this morning and headed towards Page, AZ. We were lucky enough to see some of the rare rains that fall along Highway 89. We stopped briefly in Page for fuel and snacks and headed to the Glen Canyon Dam and visitors center. It sure is impressive what we humans can accomplish.
We continued onward and back down 89 to the 89A scenic byway. It was a beautiful drive in the valley beneath the Vermilion Cliffs. We stopped to walk the dogs at the Navajo bridge historic site, took a short nap, and then continued up into the high Kiabab National Forest in the Jacob lake recreation area. Cool mountain air at 7689 ft elevation.
205 miles today. Tomorrow we will head to the north rim of the Grand Canyon.
