Yesterday, I stumbled upon a little gem located on the east side of the city of Prescott. Granite Dells reminds me a lot of Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, CO. Unfortunately though, whereas Garden of the Gods has been set aside for the enjoyment of all, Granite Dells is riddled with houses (or, in some cases, mobile homes) and crisscrossed with power lines — with no attempt to try to blend either into the beautiful, natural environment. Still, there are a few places where I was able to get uncluttered views of magnificent rocks. And, I happened to be there at just the right time… clouds had rolled in during the afternoon here but, the sun broke through a gap in the clouds just long enough for me to take advantage of the “golden hour”.

Some of the photos I took:

After supper
we went out to explore the lake
especially the rocky shoreline.
