The greatest hike in tucson





Yes that's right i have just been on the greatest hike in the Tucson area. This hike is kinda like a better version of sabino canyon that you don't have to pay for and can have more fun at. So the place is tanque verde falls trail. Its not really a trail, the only trail is down to the river, but then its the fun part because its a go look around were ever you want kinda deal. So me and Brooke started to look around and look for something fun to do, and we did we found some small water falls and took some pictures of them and eat wheat thins. Well we had been down by the water for some time and then we decided that it was time to go home. We then noticed that a man and his girl friend were coming up behind us, and they asked us if we had seen the falls. We were both like, yeah we see the falls right in front of us. Well he told us that he leads hikes in the area and there is a really big water fall up the river. So we followed him deeper in the river, he showed us some cool stuff to like a little cave that acted as a spiral stair case to higher ground. So we finally got to another water fall and it was pretty cool it was more like a skinny water slide, but it was still about 40 feet long so it was better then what we had expected. But from this water fall if you looked in the distance you could see the top of a huge water fall, so we hiked for 5 more minutes and came to this awesome water fall in a big pool with canyon on either side. I've got the pictures below if the waters falls, the big one was like 100 feet high. It was the coolest hike that I've ever done in this area.......hand down.


P.S. also the old naked looker made an appearance....who would have thought

Well then, It seems that my eyes have been burned again. But sweet pics anyway.

WHO took that picture of the naked onlooker? Seems as if we're kinda of too comfortable with a member of the opposite sex!

Kerry adds...Way to one up our turtle picture!

The ole' naked looker...classic. However I think we've all now discovered that yes, there is such thing as too many megapixels.

I guess the only bright side is that at least you didn't have any visible debris in there.
