The 2nd day we left early for Rainbow Bridge. This is the courtesy dock for the NP Monument. When we arrived we were the only boat there. |
 |
Steven couldn't resist feeding the striped bass and carp. |
 |
TThis is the 1.25 mile trail up to the Arch. The elevation rise was approximately 350'. |
 |
Our first glimpse of the worlds highest natural bridge. The weather was perfect for hiking, but quite dry. |
 |
A full view of the arch.. |
 |
It was mostly carved by a stream that flows under it. |
 |
Linda celebrating the ascent. |
 |
The trek back was much easier. |
 |
This Gecko was not afraid of us and loved bathing in the morning sun. |
 |
Our 2nd night's anchorage at Dangling Rope Bay. The anchor broke loose here. while every one was napping in the afternoon. Steve and I had to do some quick scrambling to avoid running aground on the opposite shore. Frank handled the engine throttle control while Steve and I reset the anchors with huge piles of rocks on top of them. |
 |
This is our anchorage on the 3rd night. The hiking here was a bit scary as there were some very steep cliffs which made hiking with Meggie dog a bit dangerous. I tried to keep her 50 yards away from all steep drop offs. |
 |
Frank and Renee can't believe their luck at Pan.. |
 |
Helen and Linda trying to figure out a way to beat us all at Pan. |
 |
This formation has the appropriate name of Hole-in-the-Rock. |
 |
The 3rd morning was a bit brisk and Stephen was prepared. |
 |
Here's
the whole motley crew; Steve, Roger, Linda, Renee, Meggie
dog, Frank, and Helen. I had a great time and would
enjoy doing the trip again. This was our last night's anchorage in Halls Creek Bay. Linda, Steve, and I walked along the creek with Meghan for miles. It was the best camp site we had for walking and we also had the least amount of wind here. |
