High Spur
On September 29th, 2015, Stephanie and I took a stroll through High Spur.
It was an absolutely gorgeous canyon. The sandstone in this canyon is so unblemished and red that few other canyons can rival its beauty. The flat bottom is so wide you could almost push a wheelchair through it. Some canyons take a hefty toll, but this one just gives and gives and gives…
There's not much of a story here, except that I wish we had fixed ropes then reversed the canyon, rather than hike out under the hot sun. Even then, the hike out is pretty stunning, and I’m glad we did it once.
Now for some pictures that do little justice...

Thanks Dennis! Not much water, about knee deep. Our friend Cristina @hesse15 said it was chest deep two weeks ago. It must dry up fast.
The Spur Fork sure is pretty. We took a nap at the bottom of the big rap. So serene on a hot day.
