Mystical Horizons

As we were heading up the mountains we saw these signs along the way.



As I mentioned previously the Turtle Mountains are not very high, 2,541 feet.  We did enjoy driving through them and seeing the beautiful colors.  Along the way we saw a point of interest sign and turned off to explore.
Mystical Horizons features a Solar Calendar, A North Star viewing tube and a giant sundial-not to mention absolutely breath-taking views.


We never could figure out how this is supposed to be a calendar.






 
Now for the breath-taking views.  I left some of the stones in the photo to help show dimensions and the real distance we could see.

 
It was a clear day and I would imagine we could see at least 20 miles.  This view is looking west. 

 
My favorite traveling companion!

 
Just taking a break and enjoying the view.

 
This is looking toward the east.



What a lovely day and a great opportunity to experience the beauty in God's creation.
