Spring Break 2006

At the entrance to the park.

On the shuttle to Hermit's Rest.

I don't know if you will be able to see it, but a rainbow formed in the canyon during a brief respite from the snow shower.

On the morning that we were to leave Arizona, a blanket of gropple coated our campsite.

A couple of goof-offs.

View of the Grand Canyon with the Colorado River to the right.

The girls on a piece of lava rock in front of Capulin Volcano.

Here we are inside the crater of Capulin Volcano.

This past week was spent at the Grand Canyon (South Rim) and Capulin Volcano in Raton, NM.

Our trip to the Grand Canyon was marked with cold and snowy weather. Otherwise, we were awed by the scenery and wished that the weather was more cooperative so that we could have done some hiking and a little more sight-seeing.

The volcano was very neat in that we were able to walk into the crater of the volcano. This was very interesting and also very different from our trip to Mt. St. Helens last year.
