Canyon Around the Corner

Due to Oman's mountainous terrain, there are lots of possibilities for hiking.  Some are more treacherous than others.  There is one canyon that is about 10 minutes from our house and perfect for our two young boys.  Lots of rocks to climb, but no high ledges.  Lots of open space, but in the late afternoon, shaded by cliffs.  And, best of all, if it's too hot or we are feeling too tired, we can quickly abort and head home for some ice cream.
