| no partners | | after an early morning hike with son that we decided to cut short (my last log), I wanted more so decided to drive north to escape our heat for an afternoon. Hit Hwy 17 not yet sure where I would end up. Decided Sedona, and after a stop at visitor's center just before Oak Creek Village decided to do Devil's Bridge. Guide at center suggested to park at Mescal Trailhead to hike in via Chuckwagon Trail
Now to be honest it was still toasty, 100F when I parked at trailhead just after 1pm. But hey, a lot of hike was in shade or partial shade. And the smell of pine makes it seem cooler
I enjoyed the Bridge, took some pics, hung out for a while. On way back decided to make a loop on full Chuck Wagon Trail. Wound up cutting just a bit off the loop by walking along road at end.
Great afternoon, I need to drive north more this summer. |
