I decided to stay close to home today and do this hike again.

It was a relatively cool and breezy morning. There was cloud cover for the first hour, which was nice. It was really breezy atop Bell Pass, and I would have put on a windbreaker if I had brought one.

Wildflowers are still hanging in there. Most of the brittlebush has dried up, but it still had a yellowish hue to it.

Wildflowers Observation Moderate
There is still some decent color in the area. Flat-top buckwheat, prickly pear cactus, and staghorn cholla stood out, but there were flowers also.
