After wedging herself in the canyon, J needed to negotiate a seven foot jump to a flat rock below her.  In the third photograph she is inching her way through the canyon, her backpack in her hand.  Because I was wearing a short sleeve shirt, the sharp outcroppings made this more painful for me.  The small speck of white in the last photograph is J, walking towards the end of Spooky.
