A Cave in Palo Duro Canyon

On Saturday afternoon, we went for a short hike in Palo Duro Canyon.

Palo Duro Canyon

Our goal was to find a cave that we had passed by in the car before, but hadn't had a chance to explore yet.

We found the cave opening up on the canyon wall again, and so we parked the car and set off on foot.

Connor brought Tik along, and he was an excellent climber.  He was also very excited any time he passed another kid on the trail.  He was very excited to get love from all the other hikers.

It didn't seem like that long of a way up, until we were at the top, looking back down.

And we found the end of the cave.  It was nice to see the differently colored rock layers up close.

Connor wore his GoPro camera on his head for the climb.

Can you see our car out there in the distance?
