DEVIL'S BRIDGE


Saturday we took Christmas packages up to the Cottonwood and Prescott Zones...and while we were in the area of SEDONA, we went on a hike we had been wanting to go on...













TO DEVIL'S BRIDGE!!
It was an incredibly nice day, especially for up north, and we were able to go it without needing much by way of jackets.
 Lots of time to walk and talk.
 From a distance, after walking about 1.7 miles, we saw the natural bridge.  It was AMAZING!
We got someone to take a family photo partway up at a good viewpoint...can you say "Next Year's Christmas Card?"










 The little girl in the family taking the photo wanted us to put our hands up...so we humored her!
 We enjoyed the natural steps of the red rock as we got closer up to the bridge.
 Braden played photog as we went out onto the arch.  It looks super scary and narrow from above...but when you are out on it, it is not bad, wider than it looks for sure!
With a couple of height challenged family members, we were very cautious!







But we did get Bre to go back out when we saw the view of the arch from the other side as we came back off...it was spectacular!

And she showed her enthusiasm with a leap of faith!


 We are loving exploring the trails of our mission area here in Arizona!  Come hike with us!  There are many more places we want to go!

The "leap of faith" is so Breanna! I'd be hard pressed to just walk on it. Can I take a parachute?

Scenery looks gorgeous, though.
