Box Camp Trail #22

We were going to go up to the top of Mount Lemmon, but it was so crowded, we decided to go down a bit to the Box Camp trail head instead. The idea was to go to Box Spring, but the trail was really overgrown and the footing was a little sketchy. I couldn't risk an injury this close to my summit up Mount St. Helens (next week!), so we headed back. We checked the maps when we got back to the car and found that we were less than a tenth of a mile from the Spring! Shoulda, coulda, woulda. Bleh.
