| partners | | We met Lee at Miles Ranch TH Saturday morning for day hike to Reavis but Lee's plan was to overnight at Reavis. We (Lee, Kyle, Kathy, Blanco and Cup) headed up the trail in overcast and very humid conditions expecting rain with the forecast. The West Pinto Trail #212 is good but then it meets the junction with Campaign Trail #256 that we took up the hill. As we made our way up to the West Pinto Divide the sun came out and weather was looking up. Then down to the Fireline Trail #118 junction and followed this up past the Circlestone turn off to Reavis Ranch.
Finally got the see the apples with still plenty on the trees. Very green with all the rain so we spent over an hour eating lunch and walking through the orchard. Too bad we couldn't spend longer but had to get back to the vehicle. We said goodbye to Lee and headed out for the long hike back.
Shortly after leaving Reavis Ranch area the rain started to kick in. Light showers at first but then several heavy down pours ensued. Rain was heaviest for about an hour in Campaign Creek heading up to the divide. Wet and a bit tired we finally made the downhill section as it was getting dark with 4 miles to go. Campaign trail was difficult to follow in the dark but everyone happy to be back at the vehicle. |
