We are planning on camping in the mouth of Providence Canyon over memorial day weekend. We will be going up Friday afternoon and staying through Monday. The plan is to take our trailer to a spot somewhere below the quary to camp and to let the kids ride around, then take the bronco around on the following days until the snow stops us. We will probably leave the buggy home this time in favor of

You all know where Providence Canyon is, and you all know how we like to go there. We have made the trip dozens and dozens of times for the mild, yet wild rocky trail that eventually takes you to Logan peak. Many times we have taken tents in the summer time to enjoy a few days in the cool temperatures in the higher elevations. Providence cave is a short hike from where we like to camp and we

It is very hard when someone we know is facing an alcohol and drug addiction problem. Many people who have this kind of problem oftentimes refused to acknowledge that they are having this kind of problem. It is usually the family and close friends who are compelled to take responsibility in letting the person be aware of his problems and help the person take concrete steps in starting the healing process.Sometimes drug and alcohol problems are just outward manifestations of a deeper problem that needs to be addressed. Most often it involves emotional and mental health problems. These problems can definitely occur together with substance addictions. This dual occurrence can be very difficult to determine if the facility or the people treating the patient are not well-equipped in addressi

We posted on Canyon Villas in Aliso Viejo not too long ago, but little did we know the builder was planning to come out with this gem of an ad in the Register on Sunday (click on the image above to enlarge).To sum it up, they are offering: HOA dues, property taxes, FasTrack tolls and gas, all for one year. Anything else they missed? How about utilities? Maid service? Food delivery once a week? 'Cause it's obvious that mutilating the price (or, in reality, pricing the units to market) is still a no-no.How would you feel if you paid full price for one of these units?"Hurry! Only 26 homes remaining." After how many years again? Heck, the "big auction" was a year and a half ago. If you click on that Web site, you will see this statement: "Don't miss this opportunity to own your own condominiu

A federal judge has blocked a British mining company from exploring for uranium near the Grand Canyon, agreeing with environmental groups which sued the U.S. Forest Service for approving the plan without full environmental reviews. The Sierra Club, Grand Canyon Trust and Center for Biological Diversity sued the Forest Service last month for allowing VANE Minerals Group to drill at up to 39 locations on seven sites on the Kaibab National Forest. The company is seeking commercial quantities of uranium, which has soared in price in recent years and resulted in a wave of new development. U.S. District Judge Mary Murguia in Phoenix issued a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction stopping the drilling late Friday after a hearing, said Sandy Bahr, conservation outreach di

The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is the primary geologic feature in the Canyon District of Yellowstone National Park. It is roughly 20 miles long, measured from the Upper Falls to the Tower Fall area. The canyon is up to 900 feet deep and a half mile in width. The colors in the canyon are also a result of different iron compounds. When the old geyser basin was active, the "cooking" of the rock caused chemical alterations in these iron compounds. Exposure to the elements caused the rocks to change colors. The rocks are oxidizing or rusting. The colors indicate the presence or absence of water in the individual iron compounds. Most of the yellows in the canyon are the result of iron present in the rock rather than sulfur. The falls are erosional features formed by the Yellowstone River as

Seeing as how I'm a huge fan of the Grand Canyon, my wife and I went to the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum to see the new documentary, Grand Canyon Adventure: River at Risk at the six story IMAX theatre inside the museum. Over the past 20 years I've been 3 times to the Rim, including the North, South, and the Havasupai Indian Reservation. Read notes on our Grand Canyon trip a few years ago. After seeing the documentary, I'm anxious to go on a future trip down to Phantom Ranch and rafting on the river. The 3-D film was inspiring to watch, as the river rapids surged in your face and the sun radiated off the rock cliffs formed by the river. The rafting trip through the Canyon is led

There are many reasons why you would want to get a car rental while at the Grand Canyon. Although there is a taxi service and a free shuttle bus that runs throughout the park, having your own vehicle is a wonderful convenience that will make your visit to the Grand Canyon all the better. There have been car rental agencies at the Grand Canyon in the past, but they've shut down for some reason. I spent over a year and a half living and working at the Grand Canyon. One of my jobs was working at the Grand Canyon Airport as a refueler and meeting the many private pilots that would fly in looking for a Grand Canyon car rental. You can imagine their ire when they found out that nothing was available. While I was working there the company that I was employed by made a deal with Enterprise and sec

Here's a promotional video from YouTube that was posted last August featuring Canyon Villas in Aliso Viejo.You may have heard of this 344-unit condo complex, which was built in 1992 during the previous downturn as a condo neighborhood, but instead was rented out before being re-conditioned a couple years ago back into condos and sold just as the real estate market started to shift.These are located off of Pacific Park Drive, right near Aliso Niguel High and the big Aliso Viejo town center.Apparently they were having some trouble selling the condos off, and there was an auction in October 2006 to unload 34 units.Here are the prices mentioned in the video (not sure when it was shot, but obviously before August 2007), along with a check of how similar units are priced now:One-bedroom units st

Picture ENLARGE if you click on them.Grand Canyon National ParkFor a few months I was flying back and forth between Phoenix and San Francisco every week to perform some work for a client. So one weekend I decided to stay in Phoenix and drive to the Grand Canyon.I drove from Phoenix to Flagstaff Arizona on Interstate 17. As I drove over the hills towards Flagstaff I ran into a hail storm. So when I arrived in Flagstaff I bought a full tank of gas and asked if the roads to the Grand Canyon National Park were clear. The people at the gas station assured me that while there were some snow flurries, the roads were still clear.So I left Flagstaff on Highway 180 heading towards the Grand Canyon. As I drove the snow kept falling harder and harder. The road became covered in snow, but there was sti

Cold Heart Canyon (2008)Cast :Aubrey Caldwell-HeatherWill Lupardus-DanielPaul Howard-MarcusLee Anne Davis-MarisaComment/Review/Plotline at IMDBn L.A.'s Laurel Canyon, Karen has a dream that her sister Heather is in danger, but Heather seems safe enough, having just moved to a remote spur of the canyon to distance herself from her ex-husband. She's a writer, and she's soon met several men - Marcus, who helps her the day she moves in, neighbors Daniel and Marisa for whom she cooks dinner, and Michael her landlord who cleans her pool weekly. Daniel warns her away from Marcus even as he makes a play for her and invites her to participate in sexual escapades - some enjoyable, some not. Then it becomes clear that Karen's anxiety dream was prescient. Who can Heather trust, and does she figure it

Sometimes can happen to be in trouble with alcohol or drugs....and you know how can be difficult to solve definitively this problem, especially if you are alone. The best solution is to ask a socialistic clinic for some help, and the Canyon is probably the best one you can find: this drug rehab clinic is in fact the best not only for the treatments and the staff, but also for its position, completely away from the stressful cities. The Canyon is in fact located in a splendid contest where people car really healing in pace and tranquillity. The Canyon offers various kind of treatments like alcohol treatment, addiction treatment or cocaine treatment programs: all the treatments are enriched with an intensive "on field" therapy like the Equine Therapy, the Sweat lodge Ceremony or Adventure

A while back my buddy Glenn, over at Roi Rat Journal, went on an awesome hike through Sycamore Canyon in the Pajarito Wilderness of the Coronado National Forest. The hike was spectacular and Turbo thoroughly enjoyed himself, swimming in the stream and scaling the rocks as well as nosing through the weeds. We had a great time and enjoyed some great scenery.  As a result of such, it inspired me to add a hiking section to Tucson Complete which would include very detailed information on hikes that most websites do not. Check out, http://www.tucsoncomplete.com/doku.php/hiking/sycamore_canyon for a description of the hike as well as as much info as you could need to tell if the hike is for you and prepare yourself. Glenn and I have two hikes planed over the Christmas break which will result in similar pages on Tucson Complete and corresponding posts here. Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Bryce Canyon National ParkBryce Canyon UT 84764-0201http://www.nps.gov/brca/Where is it?This outhouse is part of a set of them found at the junction of Rainbow Point and Yovimpa , the very last stop on the Bryce Canyon motorway, which it about 20 miles inside the park (from the main entrance). It's also at the highest part of the park, at 9115 ft above sea level. The area features breathtaking overlooks that stretch more than 200 miles, as well as vistas of the southernmost part of Bryce canyon and the enormous rugged valley behind it, which makes up the Grand Staircase National Monument.The stop is shaped like an elongated rotary, with covered sitting areas placed along the tops of the cliffs and a group of about a dozen cabins pitted in the middle. The facilities are located inside those cabins, four outhouses per cabin.To get here, enter the park and follow the road signs to Rainbow Point.What's it like?Yes, these are still outhouses, but they are certainly the cream of the crop -

Caochella Valley Preserve1000 Palms CanyonNear Palm SpingsCAWhere is it?From the parking area (car park would be an over statement as it is really a bit of desert with a few rocks around it) head into the reserve. Keep your wits about you though as there are wild animals out to get you. No kidding, a cougar was seen near the cars that very morning! Continue keeping the visitor centre to the right. Head off across the picnic area and you’ll come across the out house.What’s it like?What I knew about Palm Springs CA before I got there was limited to a couple of stereotypes. All I really knew was that its likely to be warmer than Aspen and was full of old people and, as with anywhere where old people go for winter, was likely to have little to offer. I guess on the first point I was proved right. Leaving Aspen on a cold crisp sunny morning at 21F and arriving at 4pm in the springs to find it hot, dry and 95F certainly did that! But did the place have little to offer?On the basis of my

The outhouse visited here is at the third stop on that loop.What's it like?It's an outhouse, that's what it's like. Did you expect something else?This is a single-toilet structure, set in the back of a parking lot that leads to walking trails into the rocks behind it. Outside, there are wonderful views of the multi-colored stone and scorched desert, as well as solid vistas of Vegas beyond it. Inside, it's a white room with a compost toilet and a toilet paper holder, nothing more. It's somewhat clean but also somewhat -- it's an outhouse, essentially.The inside of the place could use another coat of paint, just so it won't look so run down. Also, it would be nice if they

Immigration Watchdog Newsletter Watchdog Spends The Night In The McGonigle Canyon Migrant Camps - Fire hazards, human trafficking, underage prostitution, illegal alien exploitation, squalid 3rd world living conditions. This is one of the many migrant camps in Northern San Diego County that the San Diego Police Department turns a blind eye to no matter how many local residents complain. - Approx. 90% of the residents want those nearby camps cleared and have been pushing for years for the city to do something! They report that nothing ever gets done and their complaints are ignored by the PD and city. - Residents have been complaining constantly many years about the migrants roaming through their streets and neighborhoods, often times staggering drunk, especially early in the morning and late at night. SDPD takes very little, if any action. - A couple weeks ago, a migrant approached a 10 year old boy in the neighborhood and was trying to get the boy to go with him. Luc

Here’s one of my other photos I took the last time I was at the Grand Canyon — the other one I’ve shown is the “Sunset Flames“. This particular photo was taken minutes before the flames picture while the sun was still partly above the horizon. I thought it was interesting how the face of the cliff lit up the way it did. I was also pretty impressed with the clouds in the sky and the way they were reflecting the light and color. In-Camera JPEG It actually looked alright, but I knew there was more color in those clouds. Processed RAW Warmed it up a bit, brought back the color in the sky, and I opted for less contrast to start with. I also cropped out some of the foreground and put the horizon right in the middle of the frame. Good idea? Bad Idea? What do you think? B&W Conversion I’ve heard this mentioned a few times, so I thought I’d try it out. I converted to B&W using an adjustment layer with the intent of processing the photo

Esta é a "The Grand Canyon Skywalk", ou a passarela aérea do Grand Canyon. trata-se de uma ponte de vidro suspensa à mais de 4000 pés de altura acima do Rio Colorado, no ponto mais alto do Grand Canyon. A construção começou em março de 2004. Em março de 2005 ela passou pelo teste final de sustentação, quando foi levada ao limite de sua capacidade que é de suportar o peso total de 71 Boeings 747 completamente carregados.A ponte foi projetada para resistir a ventos de mais de 120 Km/h, mesmo que eles mudem de direção (foram previstas 8 posições diferentes de vento) e a terremotos de até 8 graus na escala Richter. A obra demandou mais de 1 milhão de toneladas de aço. O efeito é surpreendente. É como se as pessoas caminhassem no vazio. (*)Colaboração da minha querida leitora teacher

About tens years ago my family drove from California to Indiana. We went 50 miles out of our way so we could see the Grand Canyon which we hadn't seen before. You can go right to the edge where there is safety rails, you can really look right down into all of it. I remember looking down and having a real physical feeling of vertigo. I thought I was seeing the bottom, then I realized no...thats the bottom. It really is DEEP and it can play tricks on your depth perception. But beautiful beyond belief.As you see in this picture, we met some people from Japan who just thought our boys were adorable and they wanted a picture with an "American Family." It was so cute, they really liked holding our youngest son Alec who at the time was 4 and thought they were nuts. But he made it through and provided for a fun memory. (of which I'm thankful to have)I hope you watch the aerial footage and visit the links I've included. EVERYONE should at least see the Grand Canyon even if it is in photograp

Walk in the footsteps of people who lived at Walnut Canyon more than 700 years ago. Peer into their homes, cliff dwellings built deep within canyon walls.

We had lunch at Ruby's Inn a delightful destination resort.

She drove us to all the major "points" so we could get out and explore the sites.

And it gets as freaky as possible: lyrics in various languages, several kind of different instruments, psychedelic melodies, … . You hear a lot of influences, for instance of Latin music and of 60’s music. Although he integrates a lot of different ‘gimmicks’, his songs do sound quite calm and mellow. A lot of emotion goes underneath a big load of weirdness, but in the end, all these things don’t cover up for the easily forgettable melodies. Seahorse is the best song on this album in my opinion.

After a five-hour haul up to Sequoia National Park with a tent and cooler stuffed for a weekend camping sojourn in big-tree country, you wouldn't dream of pulling into Lodgepole campground at dusk without a reservation. More than 200 chock-a-block campsites occupy this unofficial Mission Control for car campers in one of the country's most popular parks. And on a warm evening in late summer, with the world's largest tree hulking just minutes down the road and a 20% chance of isolated thunderstorms hovering somewhere above the western Sierra, you can bet that every one of them will be occupied by a friendly family grilling slabs of meat under a dome of cloudless sky.

The question I am posing — to visit or not to visit the Grand Canyon Skywalk when you’re heading to the Grand Canyon and/or taking a Grand Canyon tour. The Grand Canyon, on a tour from Las Vegas First, my bias in all this: I have never been to the Grand Canyon. And I am starting to plan the - storied? cliche? inevitable? - family trip to Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, Arizona and the southwest. So I wanted some good, actionable, honest travel advice. My reputation as a ‘dad’ and a ‘husband’ are at stake. It would be our first major family road trip, so I cannot mess it up. (Or else.) Step 1: Ask people who know I work at a travel company, so I asked some of our staff. They all agreed on a few things — tour the Grand Canyon from Las Vegas, if you’re planning a summer trip with kids, because the Grand Canyon itself gets hot. As in, HOT HOT HOT. Fair enough, seems like good advice. I love Vegas, it doesn’t take much to convince m

Recorded in Topanga Canyon in the Santa Monica mountains. This is now a bit different from Banhart's pyedecelic folk works expect two or three song. Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon is much like a classic rock record, you'll hear long great guitar driven rock songs, for example the key track... [[ This is a content summary only.

Recorded in Topanga Canyon in the Santa Monica mountains. Neil Young lived there while recording "After The Gold Rush" and the area has also been home to Emmylou Harris, Taj Mahal, Joni Mitchell, Mick Fleetwood, and members of The Doors. Those ghosts inhabit the sound and vibe of these recording sessions. Banhart's whole "freak folk" tag is gone, replaced with this classic, gorgeous rock album. Some songs are fragile and solipsistic, others have a pronounced tropicalia influence, and still others are wildly electric and epic.

Tambien va para ustedes pinches Mexicanos Malinchistas,no vayan a E.u La zona de Barrancas del Cobre es uno de los lugares más bellos y espectaculares del mundo natural. Es, en realidad, un sistema de seis barrancas que es cuatro veces más grande que el Cañón de Colorado en Arizona.     Además, esta interesante zona cuenta con sus legendarios habitantes: los Indios Tarahumara [Rarámuri], raza indígena famosa por su capacidad de correr grandes distancias. Son también capaces de crear bellos canastos de hoja de pino y vasijas y ollas de barro. La zona de Barrancas es un lugar diferente, donde se puede respirar aire puro y realizar eventos en donde los participantes podrán disfrutar de la naturaleza al máximo.     Technorati tags: Turism, turismo, mexico, estados+unidos, Grand Canyon

For my friends and strangers over at misc.transport.road -  some photos of interstate 70 as it winds Glenwood Canyon, Colorado. I haven’t visited or posted to this group in a while, but there is a usenet board full of folks who are interested in roads, highways, and general infrastructure.  If you’ve ever wondered about arcane topics like font styles on overhead signs, new versus old gantry design, and why highways and freeways are numbered the way they are it’s worth a visit.  And like any good message board there’s plenty of heated arguments and flame wars too.  I’m more into trains and aviation, but it’s very impressive to see the way flyovers and interchanges are designed and put together.  Especially if you’ve ever navigated the 105/110 interchange in south Los Angeles. Even if you’re not into it, it wouldn’t hurt for more people to go take photos of bridges, airports, and train stations in order to ensure your right t

Now available from our partner site Southpointbooks through Buybundle, is the illuminating photography book on Glen Canyon -  This rare, out of print book shows glimpses of the Glen Canyon area prior to being flooded for a dam near the Grand Canyon in 1956. Page, Arizona was founded at the same time. The photographs are stark in their beauty, and makes an interesting read of the history now beneath the waters.

I like to hike as much as the next guy — I suppose. It is quite a different activity when you are in blistering heat and have not been blessed with an adequate amount of melanin. That said, I would say consider hiking throughout the band of canyons (Palm, Tahquitz, Murray, Andreas, et al.), nestled in the outskirts of Palm Springs, during the cooler months. We experienced the Palm Canyon during the month of July (we really need to stay out of the desert in the summer months, there’s a reason these resorts drop their rates then). In hindsight, the Tahquitz Canyon probably would have been a better pick with its refreshing 60′ waterfall. For those of you who are avid hikers and/or very outdoor-sie types, you will really enjoy this any time of the year. I think part of the problem for us was we did not take the guided tour (general admission $8 + $2/3 bucks for the hour long guided tour), I think our experience would have been very different. As far as the level of diffi

My daughter and I planned a weekend of camping in between the two day trip to the Quilomene area with the Northwest Backroad Drivers group. As luck would have it, the camping trip did not pan out as I would have hoped for. But we still had fun. After a late start getting out of town, we finally made Ellensburg, Washington around 8:00 PM on Friday night. Not a lot of time to find a camping site, especially on Friday night. I spotted some campgrounds on the Yakima River in the Washington Road & Recreation Atlas south of Ellensburg in the canyon, so we headed that direction. (more…)

We've made it as far as the Grand Canyon, on this adventure. A relatively uneventful trip, although Amy has decided she should stop wearing miniskirts, as they ride up on her in the car, and she feels the truckers have been seeing too much. Makes her feel like one of those white-trash truckstop flashers. She's got one on again today though, so I guess yesterday's resolution was more of a

Today I went to a presentation by the Canyon Ranch developer. To give you a little background on me and my history of this project, I have been a fan of this project since BEFORE the project was launched over three years ago. The project consists of three towers on OVER 6 acres of oceanfront property which encompasses 1100 linear feet of prime Miami Beach ocean frontage. The 21 story south tower, which are condo residences only, has 143 units, the 16-story center tower, which is the historic Carillon building, has 151 condo-hotel units (floors 2-10) and 80 condo residences (floors 11-16). The north tower, which is the tallest building at 35 storys, has 207 units including 7 direct oceanfront townhomes Canyon Ranch: More Than Just Real Estate Since the inception of this project, my focus has been on the real estate side of the project for the obvious reasons. After today’s presentation, I am even more excited about this project and what it brings to Miami Beach because it is SO
