Arches & Canyons

 

Cameron, AZ
US 89 - Little Colorado River
 

This old bridge crosses the Little Colorado.  It's fenced off now, due to the natural gas pipeline running down the center.  Too bad, it would make a nice pedestrian bridge.

I normally shy away from food sold in gas station stores.  But in Cameron, AZ, I gave into temptation and purchased a green chili burrito.  It was incredible.

US 160 splits off from US 89 about 16 miles north of Cameron.  After that, the scenery really gets interesting.

You could choose to continue up US 89, instead of turning off onto US 160.  If you did, you'd cross the Colorado at scenic Navajo Bridge (the first crossing east of Hoover Dam).  You'll eventually end up in Kanab, UT, gateway to Zion NP.  This trip will end up there in a few days, but you can jump ahead if you'd like.  Or, check out my 2007 trip to Zion and the North Rim of the Grand Canyon.

There's no doubt many of the folks living along here are struggling to make ends meet.  While their homes are modest, they come with incredibly scenic backyards.

I spent more time in the Navajo Nation during my 5 Days, 4 Corners Trip in 2006.
