An acquaintance in town who knows I like to hike asked if we could plan one. I had suggested Tom's Thumb but after heavy rain this week I thought he might enjoy the flowing creek at Spur Cross. No such luck, only mud left over from the flow a few days ago. But we had a great time, he took lots of pictures so guess he enjoyed scenery.

Edited distance from 5.5 to 5.99 mi per my gps route, aeg from 600 to 1053 ft.

ETA after lunch drove partway up Black Mountain, wound up hiking to peak [ triplog ]
