Tan, buff, and predominantly red-rock cliffs mark the edge of
the Colorado Plateau across Arizona's Red Rock-Secret Mountain Wilderness, lying west and mostly north of 4,700-ft. Cibola Pass.
Here, Cibola Mitten and Morning Glory Spire tower above trees of juniper and cypress, amongst a myriad of canyons draining into beautiful Oak Creek and the Verde River Valley.
"Another year has passed me by,
Still I look at myself and cry.
What kind of man have I become?
All of the years I've spent in search of myself;
And I'm still in the dark,
'Cause I can't seem to find the light alone ..."
Yep, I'm just a man in the wilderness.
