27 July. Entering Picture Gorge. This dramatic gorge was eroded by the river through the layers of basalt that poured out at about 8000 year intervals about 16 million years ago. The name comes from the American Indian pictographs that were found on the walls of the gorge. This was the start of a 26 mile climb to the summit of Keys Creek Pass followed by a sweet downhill to Mitchell.
