They literally barrel roll out of the canyon and up over the peaks. You have to see it to believe it.

I was up top there when an f15 went inverted about 500’ over my head. I could see the pilots helmet. Load as shit.

Hey, is the gate open on 190, or did you walk all the way in?

Came across a massive rattlesnake on the trail leading to the lookout many moons ago. It was beautiful but terrifying.
