Sinks Canyon
Since arriving at our house on the FT. Washakie Indian Reservation we have devoted most of our time trying to find fun and entertaining things that take us off the reservation. Thus we journyed to Sinks Canyon. It's located about 10 miles south of Lander and was surprisingly well worth the trip.
There was a little park that included a gigantic stone buffalo, which we promptly threw the boys upon and then screamed at them to be careful the entire time.
Jemma can not get enough of the slides. It happens to be one of her favorite pass times.
And of course, we had to take a glamor shot of Matt up top the gigantic stone buffalo.
And last, but not least. We found out why the area is called Sinks Canyon. The river drops down a hole and runs underground for a few miles. It empties into a cave and looks like a sink that is draining...go figure. The river pops above ground and a little pond is created off to the side. And in the pond are GIGANTIC trout. Seriously, these are shark size...or I mean, really abnormally big trout size. There's a viewing area where you can feed them. It is about 20 feet above and really is amazing to see. We of course by-passed the trout feed and threw our chocolate chip cookies into the water, which the fish loved.
