A fun get away from flagstaff

Last weekend a few of us just jumped into the car and had to get out for a day. In the end we drove down to Sedona and went on this hike. It was a really fun hike and different than trails I am use to go on in Colorado. The trail we went on was Cathedral Rock. It was an easy hike but can be steep at times and is only like 2 miles to the top. This was really cool but different because it was hard to tell where the trail is and the only thing that marks it is a mound of red rocks that completely blend into the red rocks all around. This was a lot of fun and we go some really good pictures however leave your water bottles in the car. There will be times on this trail when it is vertical but there are foot holes but it is still hard to hold that and make it up. We ended up leaving our water bottles to the side of the trail and it was a lot easier and they were there when we got back. So if you want to get out of flag I so suggest going on this hike it is a lot of fun and after the hike you can hang out in Sedona.

That's a cool quick hike. Was that your first time hiking in Sedona? There are a lot of great trails there. I mountain bike down there in the winter, but the best hiking trails are closed to bikes. There's a lot of awesome views, arches, sinkholes, and other random desert oddities.
