I had planned to make it further east today, but was caught at a deceptively-bland sounding wayside for the last hour or two of daylight. Grimes Point Archeological Area contains a field of boulders covered with petroglyphs ranging from 7,000 to 1,000 years old. A couple of trails leave from the parking area; one loops through the boulders, the other climbs a nearby hill for a commanding view of the area. Naturally, I had to hike both. Both before and after the Sun dropped behind the clouds, it was a great time to be out on the trail. The rich color, mostly yellows & golden, gave way to the calming purples & violets of the impending dusk.
