Cougar Canyon and Boulder Alley

anutami Posts: 491 4/8/2013	anutami Posts: 491 I have wanted to do a backpack trip with my family into cougar canyon for some time and it was finally the time As the temps were getting very warm and my kids don't to well in the heat I decided it would be best and "cheat" by driving up through "boulder alley" with our stock 4x4 xterra. the caravan into coyote canyon The first crossing, no water Second crossing we set up camp Friday just passed the second crossing and just hung out enjoying the desert... A boy and his dog Nice shot of a damselfy? I think (wings parallel to the body when at rest) enjoying the second crossing This little guy enjoying himself Heading through the 3rd crossing hanging out and exploring just before tackling the bypass route up "boulder alley" heading on up and up and up We made it up and the hike in is only about 1 mile we were hoping for water, we also finally invensted in some nice hats! I was getting a bit worried there was not going to be any water. Rusty was sure ready for a soak I was tempted to photoshop a corona in his paw I love tthis place...and so do the kids I could not believe the bees were not around. we had the place all to ourselves refreshing! I love this canyon Some blooms, if you are ever feeling sad just gives these shots a look...did I say I love the desert nice Indian cave not sure if this is legit or not... I looked up and noticed a lizard running on the ceiling! pools around every corner This is about the farthest we got up the canyon. It is pretty rugged...hopefully next time we will get to the 20ft falls and pool schad talks about headed back down and set up camp sorry for the long post but this is pretty much it for me on trips to ABDSP until the fall. Time to summarize the camper edited by anutami on 4/8/2013
