Starting off a hike on Wednesday with cool and overcast weather was comfortable as we headed down the wash to an old line shack. However, walking in loose small gravel will certainly give the ankles and knees a good workout! Even had a visit from a Havalina.

We reached our goal and stopped for  a break before heading back out.

Ah, the sun came out after all, so some of us took a loop trail higher up the wash on the way back to the parking lot. Just a little rocky climb for some exercise.     

Nice hike and nice views from the higher trail.
