The Kaibab National Forest near the North Rim of The Grand Canyon is a welcome relief from the scorching heat in the desert below. This sub-alpine ecosystem has life and views of nearby Marble Canyon in Northern Arizona.
Smoke from nearby forest fires.
Stunning scenery and I love the cheeky squirrel.
That squirrel was very elusive but I got him at the right moment
They are speedy little fellows.
Great first picture Michael, looking down at sunset onto that mesa wall with shadows extending way back. Impressive. Best wishes Dean Harden

Thanks Dean. The light was briefly just right!
Gorgeous. Wish I was there enjoying the cooler temps!
Excellent collection! There are many places here in Southwest Colorado where arid canyon and mesa areas border alpine forest areas. It’s great to have both accessible.
Yes, I’m going to visit Colorado in another week or so. Plan to visit Colorado NM and Rocky NP
Enjoy your visit … I am south of Colorado NM in Ouray County … the Switzerland of America!
Your photography leaves me speechless . . . always. And I’m, of course, drawn to sunsets, green forests, and natural formations unlike any others. But there’s something about that country road that just speaks to me this time. It’s familiar yet it leads to the unknown.
Thanks for the nice comments. That country road was endless……..
