After having driven up to Bismarck Lake last week, I didn't feel like driving all day. So we thought about Perry Mesa while driving up I-17. Then that got scaled back to just pulling over and doing Richinbar Mine. The Mrs. said hey we've never gone down Badger Springs. So be it. We've looked down there many times from Badger ruin and it looked pretty doable all the way south to where Perry Tank comes in, piece of cake.
Well we were quickly reminded that it had been a few years since we scurried boulders and at a time when rattlers would be loving the mid 70s. I can't tell you how many times I thought of Gummo. Alas no snakes just great weather. But our dream of making it to the junction didn't happen on this trip.
But that's always the best part....a future trip.
Yeah the three of us are sore today. A good sore...
