We had hiked Bonita Creek several years before. Certainly wasn't as much poison ivy back then. We remembered a really nice house on the west side of the creek with an immaculate lawn and a lot of sculptures. But sometime ago it must have burned down. Things change.

Was warm out in the open places of the trail. Made us appreciate the shady areas even more. Found some nice places along the creek to stop and enjoy.

Had stopped previously before the intersection with the Highline. We pressed on today hoping to get far enough north to scope out the springs. We did find one small one. I think it was Perley. Has to be more further north, but my hiking partner had enough ivy and heat, so bushwacking was going to happen on this trip. Maybe next time.
