Jeremiah 51: 15He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding. 16When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.
"This is a strenuous, but spectacular day hike or overnight backpacking trip through stark but stunning terrain.
From the trailhead, the route follows a sandy wash, but soon climbs steeply to a high plateau, then through a series of rugged drainages. After approximately 3.5 miles the trail splits into a north and south fork. The north fork descends towards the river and offers panoramic views of the cliffs of the Sierra del Carmen in Mexico and the Rio Grande far below in Boquillas Canyon. The south fork leads to an amazing promontory with endless mountain views and glimpses of the Rio far below. From there, the route steeply descends towards the banks of the river. A connecting trail parallels the river above, and connects both forks, providing for a 14-mile round-trip loop."

As I climbed steeply up and seen the clouds rolling over from the MX. side I was scared and exhilarated, that I started running towards them afraid I would miss the chance to see and photographing of the rolling clouds. I only got a dusting of light rain and sleet.

I look at a vine and see how interesting for God to have created the intertwining of the vine or just the details of one flower. How magical things are o... View More
