Today was a day to explore a new trail. So I set out for White Rock Canyon located about 5 miles into Arizona on the south side of the Hoover Dam. The trail is actually a big wash that cuts through a canyon leaving walls that rise to 1500 feet on either side of a narrow trail. Just to imagine that water that's poured through over the milleniums boggles the mind.
The trail is supposed to lead to Lake Mohave and the Arizona Hot Springs but I never made it that far. After heading gradually downhill for about 90 minutes I figured I'd better turn around and start the uphill ascent or I'd never make it out of the canyon before nightfall. But it gives me a reason to return. It took me many attempts to complete the Grand Circle Trail at Red Rock and Mt. Everest wasn't scaled in the first try. So next time I'll start earlier and not take so many pictures.
