Oh How I Do Love Detours

We woke up in the morning at Flagstaff; our day’s destination was Lake Powell. As we were driving down the highway, we saw signs for Sunset Crater…. This was an absolute must!!

Words nor pictures can even begin to describe the enormity of the crater and its surroundings…

While exploring around the crater, we saw a sign for OHV Vehicles…. Should we do it?...Yup…. Lets absolutely do it !!!

The OHV trail slowly begun to turn into an ash/rock beach; the land just opened up with trees scattered here and there…it was incredible to experience.

As another storm was fast approaching and we did not know how ashy pebbles would turn when wet, we decided to find our way back to the main road (which surprisingly ended up being a bit of a challenge)

Ahhhh... there's the road!

We stopped to stretch our legs and paws at a gorgeous over look.
