that's some impressive autumn color in AZ, tammy --- thanks for posting these. the maples look right at about peak. did you see any sign of black bears while hiking up the trail? a couple times this summer i saw rolled-over rocks (100-pounders) and piles of bear scat.. but haven't seen much evidence of bruins lately on this trail. also, hey, if you add anything or update this page you might consider posting really simple driving directions up at the top of the page... you have some vivid JPGs here, and i'm sure it will pique the interest of viewers! ~paul
