The Grandview Trail to Horseshoe Mesa

Here I am at the trailhead of the Grandview Trail. It's April 26th, 2010. The temperatures at the top of the canyon are in the 20's and 30's at night and 50's and 60's during the day.

This photo journal will give you an idea of the challenges we faced. The start of the trail was steep with many switchbacks.

You can see the trail winding through the trees below.

As we got closer to the Mesa the trail levels out.

All along the way the views are spectacular!

Eventually we reached the old Copper Mine.
