Big Spring Canyon and a Trail Yet to Be Hiked (Canyonlands National Park)

            The last stretch and final portion of the Confluence Overlook Trail. The view is across Big Spring Canyon looking to the north. Just beyond the one canyon wall to my right front is the main parking area for this area in the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. So while my legs and feet were tired after many a mile of walking, I couldn't help but take of my backpack, enjoy some water and take in the wondrous view all around.
