Hiking AF Canyon In The Fall

This is the view of the mouth of AF Canyon from Highland.

This view is approaching AF Canyon from the west. Just looking at the view right now makes me want to get my gear together.

These rock formations can be viewed from the road. There are trails up and around these rocks on the north side. The elevation gain makes for good exercise and incredible views. There are many spots on this side of the creek that are frequented by climbers. Stay clear of the climbing spots.


The morning and evening light makes this canyon look like art. The direct overhead light isn't too bad either.
The many rock slides make the trip down really easy-kind of a controlled falling.
There are hikes for every skill level.
Here are a couple shots of the beautiful creek:
