Our 2nd Hike is 1 mile round trip but we must travel 4.5 miles down a primitive back road
4WD only
the trail starts through a dried creek bed
then goes into the Canyon
There are fascinating layers of buff, yellow, gray and reddish-brown limestone and shale about 450 feet thick.
The Tinaja is spanish for Jug. The water level in the Tinaja fluctuates. Local faulting ha produced a spring at this spot. Deer, javelina and a mountain lion have been found drowned at this spot.
Can you find Gary in this picture?
Holes have been created by the faulting
Again, another good hike comes to an end. Off to find the next adventure!
Meanwhile, we keep on Trek'n
More Later,
Melissa and Gary
