1st trip
Bagging 2000-foot peaks has been getting old but I still needed to get out and hike. I thought this would be a good area of gently rolling terrain but no killer climbs. Haven't been here in a decade, and even then, only on a bike. We went after dark to avoid the bikes. We still saw 4-5 out riding with lights.

Despite a cloudless, moonless night, we didn't need headlamps. The trails here are great. If I was a trail runner, this would be a place to be. Somehow we managed to get over 1000aeg in a little over 6 miles, despite not bagging any peaks!

I realized that despite last weekend's adventure in the Kofas, 6 miles was longer than any of the hikes we did! This was much, much easier though. Still great to get out for a couple of hours. Perfect weather, though the humidity seems to be picking up ahead of the storm.

We made good time for a night hike with no headlamps. Another plus for the quality of the trails here.
