[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3046731, member: 7900"] Wow!!! Someone here is very remiss with posting pictures. I had forgotten that I had only posted two photos here before. So, let me post some from a trail that most people (especially tourists) never see. Our friends and co-hosts here at the park that worked at the North Rim in the past took us to Cliff Springs Trail, which, depending on whose account you read, is either 1.2 miles or 1.4 miles round trip. It isn't well known because the only thing to mark its presence is a single small inconspicuous sign across from a pullout capable of about 4 or 5 vehicles. Cliff Springs is an area where water drips from an overhang onto a ledge, where the water pools to some degree. Our friends told us that the deer make use of the springs, but when we went in October, there wasn't much dripping, nor was there much pooling. Thus, neither the wife nor I got a picture of the pool on the floor of the ledge. So, lets start with photos of the sign for the trail and an old pueblo granary along that trail.
