Hiking up an Arizona canyon.

This canyon has a series of rock  basins and cliffs progressing ever upward, getting taller and more challenging to climb as we went farther up. This stream would be quite spectacular to see after a summer thunderstorm.
The stream is dry now with occasional pools still filled with water, which makes it hikeable. Some pools have "wildlife" in them like this large biting insect my daughter found - very tricky to pick up - they are poisonous.
