Day 16 Sept 23 to Vermillion Cliffs, Navajo Bridge, Wapaki NM Sunset Crater to Flagstaff
Braun and I did our mornings walk. I could really see how if there wasn't a trail I could get lost so easy. I had Braun wear his little shoes today because the ground has pretty sharp rocks in parts. We left the campground around 9, we meant to stop at Jacob Lake inn to get more of the fabulous cookies, but we forgot. I got a call from Misty and got to talk to her for half an hour before we lost signal. We drove down from 9k ft, to 4k ft and were on the big flat plain we saw from above yesterday. We drove thru Vermillion Cliffs National Monument.
these are the Vermillion Cliffs
And Navajo Bridge interpretive center, and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.well...Duh
We stopped in Cameron for lunch, then on to Wupatki
Wupatki NM is a Pueblo from 800 yrs ago.We stopped at Wupatki visitor center and I got the stamps and stickers for both Wupatki and Sunset Crater and glad I did. The visitor center for Sunset Crater is closed because of a recent fire. You'd think the ranger at Wupatki would have told us that. We did get to see the crater and read the story on some informational signs at the overlook. You can't climb it.
Then on to the koa in Flagstaff. Laundry again. It's a nice 72 degrees. There is fun things here for kids. They're is a playground, a bouncy thing, and a train like thing there workers drive kids around on and a little trail to walk on. Great place for kids.
