A couple of days ago, I posted "The Road to Portal" on the blog. Just after you get to Portal, you then come upon this scene. It is looking down the valley of Cave Creek Canyon. It is a stunning landscape here. It feels like Yosemite National Park. Stan and I drove here to photograph and stargaze, because we were not sleep deprived enough after two late nights at two different observatories. This is a birdwatcher's paradise. Everyone and their uncle is looking for "The Elegant Trogon" which is the name of a real bird, believe it or not. We did not see one sitting on a branch. Stan saw one flying. But we met some other hikers and had some nice conversations along the way. We also got some nice photographs, like this one, for instance.
