Nights two and three here. We decided to spend an extra day organizing and enjoying this beautiful canyon.
Yeah right. This place was beautiful but miserable. Read the thermometer: 107! And man oh man, the horse flies as big as my pinky toe. These guys don't shoo fly, the squat and chew until you smear their guts all over your skin. HorseflyMeter: 113 bites all over my feet, legs, and arms. I learned to wear jeans and a long sleeve shirt because no matter how hot it is, the heat is better than those damned flies.
I took a two hour siesta at 2:00 only to wake up in a pool of my own sweat. Things only got better at 8pm when the sun set. I guess flies don't like the nighttime.
Sooooo happy to see this place in our rearview mirror.

ReplyDeleteI don't think it was really 113 ... maybe 111 or 112 :) -Meems
