We spent the day in the area around Marsing, Idaho, south of Nampa. A friend, Woody Woodworth, took us on a tour and we ended up at Leslie Gulch.

Actually located in Oregon’s Malheur County, Leslie Gulch is a canyon on the east side of Owyhee Lake. It has fantastic rock formations made of volcanic tuff. Amazing place!
