Late night led to a late hike. First hike of the year always starts with Ma Ha Tuak. Got to the Ma Ha Tuak TH around noon. I was surprised and lucky to get one of two parking spots left. Seems like a lot of people were out on the trails with New Year resolutions.

I did the Tuak following its old alignment. I took it to where it ended with the Max Delta and and took the Delta to the old T Bone alignment and then back to the TH to close the loop. Funny, with the exception of the Max Delta, these trails don’t exist anymore except in my memory. Another year has past. I must be getting old.

Nice temps, but air quality was horrible! Encountered 1 biker and 23 hikers. Saw another coyote. Possibly the same coyote I saw last week when doing the MX Delta. Odd. This coyote actually followed me for a short distance. Maybe .1 miles. That doesn’t seem like a lot, but it was pretty busy out there and he followed me up to a ramada in use. I never thought about it, but last nights fireworks couldn’t have been a picnic for any of the Parks wildlife.
