| no partners | | I have to say this was a convoluted hiking day for us. I'm still not sure what part of the trail we were on but I know we were in the Agua Caliente area. We started out and hit the first fork in the road, passed a cowboy on his horse who told us to take the right fork. Wrong! So as we walking along the stream bed, we ran into a lady with her Golden Retriever and told her we were trying to find the Milagrosa Trail. She told us to go back to that fork and go right. So off we went and climbed and climbed. Wonderful views! I think this was the ridge trail.
We turned around and started down and bumped into another hiker who told us we should have taken a LEFT turn before the stream bed. Will I try this one again? hmmmm, maybe. There were lots of houses around and I kept thinking, why can't someone just put a doggone trail sign up??
Lots blooming! The saguaro blossoms are out, the chollas, the prickly pears, and the ocotillos. They were wonderful to see and enjoy.
I consider this a sweet walk through the blooming cactus forest. |
