Rockclimbing Mecca

Rock climbers from all over the world come to a forested area near us to test their skills. Maple Canyon is known not only for being a gathering place for climbers but also for its beautiful fall colors.

Yesterday various members of our extended family took a day trip to the canyon for picnicking, sightseeing and mild hiking and rock climbing. Enjoy the many beautiful sights of Maple Canyon!




Can you see a very tiny Weston waving near the top?

You won't be paid for it, but at least you'll know that you have contributed intelligence to the universe...
