The Adventure Club goes up the creek

Over the years the Kadizzles have made many friends as we travel the southwest.  Yesterday we got together with seven of our traveling friends and went up Sycamore Creek.  It was a great group adventure. Two four wheel drive trucks, and thankfully Cliff's jeep headed up the creek.  The road was terrible even by local standards. The trucks made it to the second creek crossing.  After assessing the crossing we made the right decision not to take the trucks.  Cliff blasted through with his jeep which he had stuck there in three or four feet of water a week earlier.   Cliff made it, but almost tipped over into the deep water.  Cliff's jeep will only seat two, so he had to have one in the passenger seat and two on the bumper as he ferried us up to the trail head.

Kadizzle did not think he would like the creek hike, but it turned out to be a very nice surprise.  The water falls were spectacular, and the hike along the creek was great.  The grade was nice and now our trail crew is thinking about going back and working on the trail.  The trail may be the ideal camp out project. Since there is water in the stream it will make it ideal.
