The Three Golden Chiefs

You've probably heard of Capitol Butte and Coffeepot Rock outside west Sedona (AZ), north of Highway 89A,

but ... The Three Golden Chiefs ???

I met these guys while HIKING the Teacup Trail. Don't you think they're
buff, with a very awesome suntan?

The Teacup Trail begins at a kiosk on Buena Vista Drive, and heads north pass the Sugarloaf Trail.

If you continue on Teacup toward a spur trail leading up a draw to the
NW, you can follow a "pronounced gully" to the summit ridge of Capitol Butte.

Confused? I thought you were.

Please ... just keep looking at "The Three Golden Chiefs."

(They're located approximately 1/2-mile east of 6,355' Capitol Butte).
