We had some breakfast I tell you! Mary Ann out did herself. Bacon, Fresh Eggs, Potatoes, and muffins. That plus some coffee was our send off from LF Ranch. She then walked us down to the river and showed us the best spot to cross. The river was awesome and surprisingly warm. About a hundred yards downstream we saw her horses horsing around. I suppose they were just having fun. :)

Anyway right away this passage starts climbing and goes up for a good little bit. Jeeze breakfast wasn't even settled yet! Once up top of the mesa it levels out for awhile. We encountered a pretty rocky terrain for a lot of this passage as well as 26.

Speaking of 26 someone from the Arizona Trail Association may want to get out there and put up some signs. There were none for the first few miles. Thankfully we had Nicks GPS plus I had some good detailed print outs. Otherwise there would have been no way to know where we were going and where to turn.

The last part of 26 from Oak Spring to the Pine Trailhead is really nice and was the best part of the passage.

It's always fun hiking with the Frickinator! Good times and great slurpees on the way home!
