We took a car trip through Oak Creek Canyon from Sedona to Flaffstaff. We were going to drive this route when we were in Flagstaff with the Nest, but we were told that would not be a good idea, but we should take the drive in the car. 
Heading down into the canyon. 
Crossing Oak Creek. 
Stopped at Banjo Bill picnic area for lunch in the Coconino National Forest. 
Parked in front of a stream, and ate lunch in the car. It is a very cold day, low 50's when we left Cottonwood. We have gone up some in elevation, and it has gotten much colder. 
Down in the canyon. 
It started to snow. First snow Joe and I have seen since the winter 2007. 
At the lookout spot close to Flagstaff. 
Looking down into the canyon with light snow falling.
It stopped snowing, but left just a dusting. 
Wall of the canyon as we fly by. 
Drive along the creek in the canyon, 
and the canyon walls. 
It starts to snow again. 
Heading out of the canyon into Sedona. 
We left Sedona and heading to Cottonwood 15 miles down the road. 
Beautiful cloud coverage. 
Mingus Moutains in the clouds. 
Cottonwood in the valley. 
Entering into Cottonwood with sun shining on the Mingus Mountains and their foothills.
