Stevens Arch as viewed from the Weeping Dinosaur bench.

A note from Rob:
As our winter slide scanning project nears completion we wanted to share a family backpack trip we did over Memorial Day weekend in 1999. Julie and soon-to-be husband Matt joined Christy and me for a trip down lower Coyote Gulch to Stevens Arch.
For me, it was exactly 30 years after my first trip to Jacob Hamblin in 1969 and provided many contrasts. Most notably, we traded cows for campers. As much as I prefer cows, I would have to admit the canyon vegetation was much healthier and despite tents on every viable campsite the canyon was still spectacular.
Ready to get truckin - Matt, Julie, Christy and Rob’s excellent JanSport backpack.

You will note the rich Kodachrome color but a lack of sharpness in this batch of images. I was between cameras in 1999 and have no idea what we were using. Thus, we see that great film and scenery can’t compensate for a poor lens.
