Could not get to sleep last night.
Finally gave up trying, started getting the water and pack ready about 4:00 A.M.
Drove to the Mormon TH at 24th St, with certain Trails in mind that I wanted to do.
Don't know what I was thinking, senility must have set in and I forgot it was Saturday.
Got on the Trail by 4:55, and by 6:00 there must have been a hundred people already.
Lots of Bikers and Hikers alike. Scrapped some of my plans, got the Loop done and bailed.
Mormon Trail to Mormon Loop to National back to Mormon and down.
First time doing the Mormon Loop, liked it, twice the workout of Mormon Trail alone.
Must have seen 300 White-winged Doves, boy they really like those Saguaro blossoms. Yum!!
One Cactus Wren and a Whiptail Lizard, I think everything else was still asleep, smart!!!
Think I'll be able to sleep now....  |
