Box canyon highlight for me was black headed grosbeaks feeding young. Mt. Adams & Engineer Mt & the Million Dollar Highway spectacular. At Gunnison the desert starts quickly & by Cortez very hot. Visited 4 Corners & enjoyed the trip across Northern Arizona – lonely, colorful & glad for air conditioning. Arrived Deckers about 8:30 & Dave is a doll. Holds bottle by himself & is almost crawling. Big grin – but no teeth.
