Fantasy Canyon

After finding a magazine with places to visit David took us out to Fantasy Canyon.  My parents were here, so we packed a lunch and headed out.  First we thought we were lost but eventually found what we were looking for. 
This "canyon" is just a small .5 mile loop that takes you through these really cool rock formations.


Grandma and Brinner.
The canyon.
Our hiking crew.
This one was called "Dinosaur Backbone"
This one is the "Gargoyle"
Adorable!
The boxing bear.



Just down the road was the Ouray fish hatchery.  They hatch only warm water fish. Most that were near extinction.

These fish were 15-20 years old.
Checking our the babies or at least that is what the kids said.
And the fish eggs.
All of these pools were filled with different ages of fish.
The bigger pools had the fish who were ready to go out to the river.
It wasn't as cool as the Jones Hole hatchery but it was still and adventure.
