A Tarahumaran women and her two bambinos wait for tourists
in front of the hotel.

Helicopter tours of the canyon are also
available, and can be booked in Creel.

Looking toward the Divisadero Barrancas Hotel's restaurant
and bar buildings
|
Rustic wooden footbridge helps you cross from one building
of the hotel to another.
|
A woman makes straw baskets at the edge of the canyon while
her cute, round-faced child watches.
|
The bridge connecting our canyonside room to the
other lodging buildings casts an interesting shadow.
|
Beautiful artistry on the one of the doors at
the (Cabana) Divisadero Barrancas Hotel.
|
Gorgeous canyon views from the hotel's railing
|
Vegetation is quite different at the bottom of the canyon -
palm trees and citrus trees instead of pine and oak
forests.
|
For anyone taking the Copper Canyon Railway, Divisadero
will be the highest point of your journey, both in elevation and beauty.
|
Divisadero is the point of the railway journey where the
train crosses the most scenic and dramatic sections of the route.
|
Have to admit this bridge is rather
rickety-looking, but the cute donkey doesn't seem too
concerned.
|
The hotel is enveloped by mist.
|
A tall brush-like agave plant
|
The canyon almost has a velvety appearance in this light.
|
Waiting for the sun.....
|
The hotel actually has the look of a rustic motel, as the
there are no more than two stories.
|
Walkways around the main hotel/lobby building allow for
great canyon viewing!
|
Here you truly feel like you're on top of the
world!

Another misty mountain morning in Divisadero
|
At this particular spot, right outside of our
hotel balcony, a rickety-looking fence is all that keeps you from a long
fall.
|
During the winter months, this area can become
covered in snow.
|
Just barely awake, and our intrepid photographer is already
taking pictures.
