HAZ - Event

I was planning on the CSP2ML hike, but it didn't work out. Actually, I was fine with that, and liked this easier loop. Hardly a huge challenge, but one of the most scenic hikes in the Catalina Mountains. Still very hazy, and it was only near dusk that the Santa Ritas started to become visible. Even the Pusch Ridge was hazy. I took lots of pics, but they don't totally do this hike justice. How can they?

Stopped for a little while under some oaks and enjoyed the birds in the trees. Totally different feel to this hike.
