    11-28-08 Chivo Falls and Chimney Rock

    Thanks to Craig for guiding us through some neat areas down around east of Tucson. It was good to finally meet you (and Wrangler). Chivo Falls was a little harder than I anticipated and I liked that... little bits of everything. And then someone came up with the bold and interesting idea to climb to the top! Wink

    Chimney Rock was a nice detour and had some fun trying to "play" on the rocks.  Props to Damion who challenged Chivo with no issues. No carnage of any kind to report, all in all, a very successful trip.  A few pictures:

    Chivo Falls... not quite as much water as you'd expect from the rains. Very cool.

    There was a dusting of snow on the peaks
