Went hiking up to the rim and on to hidden valley. Initially we went up the crack in the first photo, and then some time on the fins before heading down a rocky trail to the ending trailhead

Another beautiful day here, glad I am not still in Pennsylvania with the recent storm.
Went out for a hike to see some more dinosaur tracks, and an old abandoned copper mine. The dinosaurs must have liked it here as the were stomping all over the place.
Old copper mine overlooked Salt Valley and was pretty interesting, but must have been hard working there due to the remote location.

Yes, some of those old mining ghost towns are fun to visit but sure wouldn't want to have been there working under those conditions. Cool pictures of the dino foot prints.

They say that the leaf springs from these old trucks, re-forged, make pretty good knives. Old Rudy Ruana used leaf springs from wrecked Studebakers for many years.
