Rain! Lets go hiking.The road going in was a little muddy and had a few puddles.The "flying focus" seems to enjoy it.Hit Bluff Spring trail around 8:00am.There was a light rain.It got harder from time to time and even turned to ice and snow at times.I went as far as Terrapin and hit the wash and headed back down.Bluff Spring Mountain had a layer of white on it.Very cool!Going down the first canyon I got pretty wet so from there on it didn't matter :) .Made it down to Barks and took it down to Dutchman and on back to Peralta.It all has a different look in the rain and I love the smell of wet dirt and vegetation. :D I saw probably a dozen backpackers comming out of the Supes during my hike but no critters.Nice hike.
