Here are some pics from a sweet canyon ride today. Butterfield canyon, with my son on his Yamaha XS1100 and then my wife and me on the VT1100.
Very nice ride. . . Heading up the canyon
Canyon is getting tighter (Butterfield gets VERY tight)
Near the top - notice the drop-off (more of that to come)
View from the top - that is the Kennecott Copper Mine in the distance
Another view from the top. . .
Some flora at the top (we took a little hike)
Now we have to go back down. Notice how this narrow road has a cliff on one side and a rock wall on the other. YES, this is a 2-way road. One must take it slow and watch for cars coming the other way!!!!
