Top of the walkway heading down into the canyon. (The cliff homes in the prior images are just off the right side of this image.)
[View looks down into the currently waterless gorge. The sides of the canyon are steep on both the right and the left. Many trees cover the hillside. A paved walkway with a metal railing is at the bottom edge of the image.]

Interesting tree along the crater trails
[Two images stitched together of a thick tree trunk lying on the ground. A few short branches stick out from the trunk. One longer branch at the far right extends several feet skyward. In the distance are several rounded mountains beside each other.]

Marble Canyon
[View of canyon walls.]

Looking back at the visitor center from atop the pedestrian bridge across the canyon.
[Part of the pedestrian bridge railing is in the lower right of the image. Coming in from the left side is the vehicle bridge. In the center foreground is a stone structure with round wall sections between some straight sections. Encompassing the upper two thirds of the image are two sets of high cliff walls. The front one is mostly brown while the back one is different colors (red, brown, grey) in different sections of the depths of the rock. The cloudless sky is bright blue.]
