Tonto Natural Brige Hike - April 23, 2011

The lady and I took a much-needed drive up north to get away for the day. We opted to explore the Tonto Natural Bridge area, just northwest of Payson, AZ. It's essentially this huge naturally-carved bridge made up of entirely travertine -- apparently one of a kind (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonto_Natural_Bridge).
