Horseshoe bend with no horse

The great Colorado river is 1,450 miles long and along its tortuous course, somewhere by the city of Page, is a portion that attracts more snapshots than on any other point in its course - the horseshoe bend.


 What a beautiful scene if not only for
the sluggish and polluted water
add a beautiful lady and the mood
changes dramatically

Let's get back to the right order of the story. To get to this view there was a lot of traveling to do... 
From the Antelope Canyon the group traveled about 9 miles to the horseshoe bend through scenes like this:



this is the parking lot for visitors
at the horseshoe bend
about a hundred meters from the 
colorado river. the outer rim
of the horseshoe bend is visible
behind the lady

that's the usual crowd around the rim
trying to get a good shot

these dudes are not tired nor nauseated,
they're just finding another pose nearest
to the cliff.

here's a video to appreciate the
approach to the rim and the awesomeness
that it inspires

the trip ain't complete unless
you've posed with the love of your life

just teasing the acrophobia and
trying to find a cure by sitting
at the farthest point on the ledge

on the way back to the car we 
see this sign with a head on top.
yeah, thanks too, Glen Canyon for
the memorable trip.
