Last fall a friend and I spent three days sea kayaking off the coast of Maine. It was a great time, our first in that kind of environment. One tool that made it easier was his GPS unit, a Garmin 60Csx. It came in particularly handy in identifying islands and figuring out where we were in the fog.

After a two hour drive, obtaining permits and listening to the Rangers run down of the rules we were on the "Stone Lions" Trail by 11 am. Gaining the Pajarito Plateau on a short ¾ mile traverse from the visitors center at Frijoles, we took a short break to take in the views of the Canyon.
