Oct. 10, 2024. The receptionist at the Jacobs Lake RV park where we were camped clued me in on this location. I had gone to the registration desk looking for a map of the 4×4 back country trails that would lead us to various overlooks along the rim. I mentioned that I was a photographer and that I was looking for locations I had not photographed before. She said she thought that Crazy Jug Point was one of the most scenic of all the location along the entire north rim. That was all the inspiration I needed to decide that the 40 some miles of back country 4×4 travel would be worth it. The next day we took our Jeep to the point and it did not disappoint.

I shot this at 200mm focal length. The short distances to the nearby objects at the overlook required me to shoot almost all individual shots, other that some in the middle of the top row of the images, using focus bracketing There are 1714 individual, mostly focus bracketed images yielding 120 images, 5 rows x 24 columns, used to stitch together this shot. My settings were f/13, 1/800th second and ISO 400.
