A helicopter tour seemed like a good idea-and it was. Here I am climbing aboard while Carol waits her turn to approach. We'll be sitting in the rear seats.
Up, up and away!
A Grand Vista if ever there was one!
The mountains that look so close from our cottage are a long trek away on foot. We'll get to see them up close without any walking.
The trees manage to grow in narrow cracks between the rocks with barely any soil visible.
The sun is starting to go down and is casting long shadows
An ancient cave dwelling, the only sign that humans have been in these rocks. There are jeep tours out into the foothills (coming up later) but none visible this afternoon.
Wilderness for miles
Trees growing on the summit of this lone rock
Signs of shallow caves on this rock.
We're heading back to the airport after a 45 minute flight.
You can just see the airport runway in this next shot between the bushes and the mountains. The airport sits on a flat plateau just outside of town.
An exhilarating flight and one we will take again when next in Sedona, even though the rocks won't have changed!
