The Box, revisited

Box Canyon, New Mexico

March 28,  2012

Another stop on our 2002 trip that had to be revisited was Box Canyon.  Box Canyon has good bouldering, fun cacti, and lots of rock formations to explore. Here is a token photo of me bouldering followed by a gorgeous lichen photo. 

I lichen you.  Ha! Want to remember the relationship between algae, fungus, and lichen? To bad here we go.  "Freddy Fungus took a lichen to Alice Algae and now their marriage is on the rocks.

James and E are contemplating the best route up a rock. I love this photo.  It shows how grown up E is, how he has the ability to problem solve, and how James and he share this passion for climbing.

The meeting of the minds worked.  James is at the top.

If you look closely in the photo above, you can see T's yellow shirt. The rock face is huge and beautiful.
