| no partners | | | Snuck in an afternoon hike up Gibson under sunny skies and temps in the 50s. There is some new 'trail' work along the footpath that ends atop hill 5502. Took a slightly different route up the ridge (off-trail) which only required me to cross the old fence one time. I have to admit, the trip up the ridge was not an enjoyable one today. Maybe I just want in the mood to be scratched, poked and jabbed with every other step. I was happy to reach the summit, sign the register and start the trek back. I picked up the pace on the return. Saw a few varieties of Wildflowers, lizards, 6 elk and lots of birds. The crows were surfing the wind as it broke over Stewart Ridge. Didn't have any allergies today despite literally breathing in and being covered by Juniper and other pollens. Tanks are still full to the max. Once again, had the place to myself. |
