SkyOwl and I spend a few days in Williams almost every year looking at geology stuff in the area. We took some great pics last time!

Williams is my favorite place to go camping.

[Skyowl's Wife]

We count Williams as a comfort camp and stay at the KOA there. Ever go see this place?

[Stitch]

I have never seen that before. I avoid campgrounds if at all possible. I usually camp close to one of the many tanks in the pines.

It's got observation hutches but no campground. It's on an Indian Reservation on a lava flow on the Little Colorado River. It is called variously Desert Niagra, Desert Falls, or Grand Falls. It's where Sunset's Bonito Flow (or Merriam's Kana-a Flow, there is disagreement) crossed the river, causing it to re-route itself. Interesting to geology amateurs.

Thanks for the info. I will have to check it out.

Beautiful! I lived in Mesa for a few years when in high school, so we did a lot of hiking and "sight seeing".. I often miss the beauty of the desert, and the mountain views... The hardest is Ohio winters.. bleh.. someday I hope to make it back out for some of the beauty Az has to offer! Thanks for sharing!
