Nice little out and back

Here the water has eroded a hole in the middle of a Gypsum layer. This creates a nice little water hole for wildlife.

This was a nice little hike that wasn't too difficult. One of the interesting features is a natural bride that the trail utilizes crossing a small ravine. I also spent some time wandering through one of the many small canyons that cross through here. Some very interesting erosion features taking place in the Gypsum layers there.
