I would love to walk barefoot in that water

Holy crap I used to camp there every summer when I was a kid! I think around that exact area because the instant I saw it I recognized it! Many good summer memories there

Love that clear reflection, you could flip the picture and no one could tell the difference. Beautiful shot!

Damn…

Almost.

Hate to be a downer here, but it's really important to call out the over-use of this natural treasure by humans. Oak Creek is so polluted one must check the e-coli counts before entering the water. https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/coconino/recreation/?cid=stelprdb5375802

Yup. Not a lot of rocks and sticks in the sky. Still a gorgeous shot.

The whole area gets so many visitors, it’s understandable but also troublesome. I remember wanting to check out sliderock which is nearby and it was crazy how crowded it was for miles and miles. Beautiful area, the appeal is so obvious.

Love the drive into and out of that canyon on what is it, 89?

I remember hiking there, you have to cross the stream a bunch of times in different ways, really fun!

Love oak creek

Yep, 89 just north of Sedona. I'd personally like to argue that US-89 is on of the most beautiful roads to travel on from Arizona through Utah and Wyoming it's breathtaking almost the entire time

absolutely agree, one of the best stretches of road I’ve driven
