Starting out towards Perdido Canyon
We left one truck at the top end of the canyon and drove back down to the mouth (why did we choose to go *up*??) This photo is looking toward the canyon mouth (the red) as we cross the desert from where we left the truck.

Amateur archaeologists
We start looking for fossils; there are supposed to be many in this canyon. At first we look and look and look but don't find any.

Fossils
We decided this was the fossilized remains of the last supper, and wondered how much we could get for it on Ebay. But we left it there, being the good National Park citizens that we are.
