After a cosy night without rain (it flew over) in Flagstaff I moved towards the White Mountains of eastern Arizona. Going through Navaho Country you can see the Native American influence with less commercialisation and more ‘Trading Posts’ selling locally crafted goods. Pulled off the highway to Barrenger’s Crater. This is an amazing site and the best preserved crater landing site in the world. To give an idea of the size of it, the floor could accommodate 20 football games at once with 2 million spectators on it sloping edges. Quite a site but I don’t think the Subway sandwich shop was there when it was created! Onward to Pinetops and Lakewood where I am in a wee lodge house on Walton’s Mountain…well it is like that. It is over 6000ft above sea level and I have a nice log fire going to add to the ambience. Heading east tomorrow and the owners are working on a good route for me. 1. Leaving the Canyon 2. Barrenger’s Crater. 3. My wee But’n’Ben in the White Mountains.
