Default canyon carving this weekend

jschmid and I went crusing on Rt.88 in AZ on saturday. schmiddy took a bunch of pics that I think turned out really nice. I took this from his post on EH.

Hittin' the road:










A whole LOT of this :



That'll buff right out:



Some scenery:



Superstition Mountain:



An old gold mine:



Those are the highlights.
