A great Arizona drive THE SALT RIVER CANYON

Taking a break from the book reviews now to bask in a little Arizona scenery.  Are you in the vicinity of Globe AZ?  Take highway 60 and drive through the Salt River Canyon.  T'aint the "Grand" one, but it is a nice option since you can drive right down to the bottom and then back up again.  



From above the views are splendid. 


Closeups are even more spectacular.


At the bottom you cross the river on a modern bridge.




The river seems shallow and pretty placid down here. 


The view looking up is fascinating as yo see the road zig zagging down.



There are lots of places to stop  and look as you go down or back up out of the canyon.





And pretty soon you are back on the other side and can't even tell it is there. 




Ohh to be traveling again!
