Wed., Dec, 4, we were large enough to split into 2 groups. One went clockwise and the other counter clockwise on the same trail. It was early & overcast, which made it a good day for hiking without the hot sun beating down on us.

This trail was pretty moderate & it was great to hike with  old friends again & make new ones. This trail has a really nice ‘cactus forest’. 

Ah, a nice workout to start another good season of hiking out in the desert.
