Following my soaking at Chiricahua National Monument, I headed east to the Dragoons. Endless rain and mud dampened my spirit a bit, but I wasn't going home without visiting the Stronghold. I fish tailed through the mud and creek crossings and arrived at the deserted and closed Stronghold Campground. I cruised up the soggy trail with an umbrella above and Tevas below. The summer rains had been kind to the Dragoons. Wildflowers and new grass were everywhere. Sunflowers adorned the shoreline of brimming full Half Moon Tank. Cochise Spring box was overflowing. I made my way to the first overlook of Rockfellow Dome, then turned around to begin the long journey home to Prescott. Not the best weather, but it felt great to visit one of my favorite places.
