Hiking, lunch and Riley baked some cookies today. Other than that not one exciting happened, so I'll leave you with still more photos from a hike I took a few days ago. Today I once again stayed on the desert floor making my way round trip just under 5 miles. I meandered here and there and was home at just about the 2 hour mark. Not a bad way to spend some time. Enjoy the photos.

| It's not as smooth as it looks, is it? |
 |
| An amazing amount of force to break this, I'm guessing it happened when it fell. |
 |
| The broken rock in the above photo is on the left under the flat top area. |
 |
| The Ocotillo's are getting ready to bloom Deb. |
|
 |
| Such a pretty colour, aren't they? |
 |
| I can't raise my arms any higher!!!! |
|
 |
| It's my favourite mountains over there. |
 |
| I just can't believe the colours here. |
 |
| I couldn't get up there to the top, what would I hang on to? |
 |
| Some folks might try that but not me, I'm a 'lets not fall and break my neck' type of climber. |
 |
| The views are always interesting. |
 |
| A good seat if you could trust yourself to sit on it but not me. |
 |
| Do you see the face? |
 |
| I like the saguaro you can see at the top of the rock, very far away, appears small but isn't. |
 |
| I'd love to climb up there but of course it won't happen. |
 |
| I followed this path. |
 |
| Very deceptive but it's truly quite steep. |
 |
| I made it almost to that narrow passage between those two outcroppings but changed my mind. |
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed your visit.
Until next time... take care, be safe,
Deb
I never have witnessed the desert come to life like it seems to be doing right now. For that reason I am really enjoying your pictures.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to share them with you. You have the heat this year though as it's been cold, damp and overcast most of the winter.

I saw the sad face that rock and loving your photos as things are turning green.
ReplyDeleteIt was quite the face. I noticed it following me with it's eyes.
DeleteI"m hoping to get back into the box canyon and see some blooms in the next day or two.
Take care, be safe,
