took time to play with the rocks and the water hole. |

Below: Approaching The Natural Bridge, Lee Duquette set up the camera for
some self-timed photos. Nobody else was around at this time. |

Karen Duquette to go up some stairs. |

Below: A glimpse
from a bridge down into the big crevice below. To the right of the picture
is the start of a big mound that Lee and Karen Duquette must go around
and then up via some difficult and strange steps. The sign at the beginning
of the trail can also be seen in these two photos below. |

|
Marker #13 shows a view up to the beginning of the trail, but Lee and Karen
Duquette were NOT quite at the top yet. |
 |
 |
Below: Next, Lee
and Karen Duquette had to walk around the bottom of the round rock formation
shown below on the left, then they came to some logs that were in lieu
of stairs. |
 |
 |
After reaching
the top of the log stairs, there were indents that represented stairs.
The photo below on the left shows part of the stairs, and the photo
on the right shows how the the stairs go into the mountain. |
 |
 |
Below: As Lee
Duquette started up the difficult stairs, Karen Duquette, who was still
at the bottom of the stairs took a Butt shot of Lee. Karen also took
a zoomed-in photo of a rock formation that looked to her like a finger
pointing up towards the stairs as if to say "Yeah, good luck
RV Gypsies." |
 |
 |
Below: Then Karen Duquette had to tackle the stairs and decided
to sort-of crawl up them. |
 |
 |
Looking back at
trails that Lee and Karen Duquette were on before walking the final
path of the big loop back to the starting point. They have really hiked
a long ways, enjoyed every minute of the trip, and especially the amazing
scenery. |
