After our supper last night we went to Sinforosa. It is a breathtaking view into God's amazing creation. Wow! The top photo is one that Dad took while we were there. The air was very smoky, so our long range view was limited. However, the vast area that the Copper Canyon emcompasses was clear. We simply cannot comprehend the magnitude of the canyon. The Tarahuamara people live throughout the canyon area and are the center of the Capps ministry. Dad says that at night one can see the home fires of the people who dwell in the cliffs. We could see the trail, incredibly steep in many areas, wind up and out of the depth. The Tarahuamara walk miles and miles and miles and miles - all day in some areas- to reach the top, then they have to walk on to catch a ride to town. How many of us complain about having to carry the garbage clear out to the dumpster, 50 yards away? We spoiled people with our first world problemas!
It was rewarding after a day of hard work to take a fun-break!(The lower photo is a close up (taken from the above link) of the same place Dad's photo came from.)
