As we have done on our past trips to Page, we stop at the Navajo Bridge to see if there are any Condors.It’s late morning when we get there and we learn that there is a young bird (about 6 months old) that only just came out of the nest and is not quite ready…...

Yesterday a friend of ours went to Buckeye to find the borrowing owls and she came home with pictures of huge flocks of Ibis. We took the chance and drove out to Buckeye this morning. We were there way before sunrise and took the time to drive around looking for flooded farm fields, where we would…...

Last week Marco was up in Heber-Overgaard, AZ with a friend and came home raving about how beautiful it was. So, we keep watching the weather forecast and find that Monday would be perfect, sunny all morning and only in the afternoon some expected thunderstorms (we are still in monsoon season).We leave early and arrive…...

Even though we didn’t get a lot of rain this summer yet, the mountains around us have been getting some decent monsoon storms with a lot of water. Flagstaff for instance had to fight many flash floods already. So on the weekend, Marco says: “I wonder whether the Chocolate Falls/Grand Falls have water”. I did…...

The Wahweap Hoodoos are unlike most of the hoodoos that you're familiar with in Utah. Instead of deep, rich shades of red and orange, these hoodoos are a ghostly white.They are located on the edge of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument along the Wahweak Creek and are a more difficult to access - we have…...

Since the weather forecast was not as good as we had hoped, we change our plans for today and instead of driving all the way to White Pocket, we take our friend Dennis to the Toadstool Hoodoos first and then we head out to the Wahweap Hoodoos.  The Toadstool Hoodoos are only a 1-mile hike…...

When we were here December 20th, 2021 we already knew that we had to come back, firstly because we had not seen everything yet and secondly because it’s just strikingly beautiful. We connected with our friend Dennis and found a date that worked for all of us. We arrived in Page on Sunday after visiting the…...

On our way to another adventure around Page, AZ we passed by the Navajo Bridge again on Sunday. It’s been the 3rd time since November last year and every time we got a different view of these majestic birds. This time we counted 11 birds in the about 2 hours we were there. Unfortunately the condors…...

Reflecting on what we will remember of 2021:We got to experience the waterfall at back of our yard for the first time in more than a year, thanks to some nice monsoon rains in August. It was great to see nature flourishing as a result - amazing what a difference a little rain can make.…...

A local guide we met at The Wave on November 19th, 2021 suggested to visit Coyote Buttes South if we wanted to see more wave-like formations and colors. According to the Bureau of Land Management BLM Coyote Buttes South is just a small part of the 112,500 acre Paria Canyon-Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness, but has some…...
