Box Canyon Suzuki and Jeep

John and his Jeep

Saturday after running errands in the morning with Ginger, John and I had some free time and decided to make a run to box canyon near Florence. After several detours, because of the Renaissance Festival, we made it to Box Canyon where we met up with Dawn and Andrew who were out there camping. We loaded Dawn, Rigdon and Sienna into the Suzuki and Julia into the Jeep with John and headed to the canyon.
Mike and the Sidekick

There was plenty of water running down the creek which kept the dust down, we even passed someone trying to pan for gold. Several Jeeps and quads were in the canyon so you had to be careful of oncoming traffic.
We went up as far at the Sidekick would allow, the rocks got to big for the ground clearance so we had to turn around, not an easy task when the canyon is 12 to 15 ft wide and the cars are 8 ft long. We came over these rocks going in and now we have to go ever them going out. Only a few minor scrapes going over them.

Are you sure that we came this way?

Not the greatest on articulation, but out it came
Wow that was fun, you can tell by the smiles!

Seems like we had fun! I'm so glad you came by. Remember I was covered in dirt and don't normally look so icky. At least I hope not...
