Climbers on Mexican Hat Rock 5-9-08






On our walk to Mexican Hat Rock we saw a few cars bouncing along the dirt roads to get to the Rock. Only one drove as close to the base as they could get. We were about two thirds of the way there when we thought we could see something under the "hat" way up there! I used the telephoto on my camera and sure enough two people were up there. As we got closer a couple that had binoculars told us that the people up there were getting ready to climb the rock. Sure enough...why anyone feels the need to climb a perfectly good, very high rock is beyond me! Larry noticed a pony tail on the person doing the climbing and sure enough it was a crazy woman; climbing a rock in WHITE capri pants....I mean really WHITE when climbing rocks?! It took her about a half hour, but she did it. Then her partner climbed up after her and it took him about 5 minutes. Crazy people!
