| no partners | | Last day 3 of my 4-day solo camp on the Rim. Link to the camp triplog: http://hikearizona.com...
After packing up camp, I stopped off at the Battle Ground marker and headed down towards the Washington Park trailhead. The upper part of this trail is steep and mostly loose rock. But it gets better quickly. There was a good breeze and some cloud cover, both making this very enjoyable.
Some heavy equipment had used the lower portion of the trail as a route up to a side road. Along the way they'd done some heavy trail maintenance. At least the loose dirt was better than the loose rocks up top. Saw a hiker going up along this part of the trail.
Had a quick snack beside the stream at the lower trailhead. Pretty spot.
Headed uphill and ran into the same hiker as before. He'd been to the top. We chatted for a few moments and I mentioned HAZ. He wasn't aware, but seemed appreciative of the info.
Made better time going up than anticipated. Rain started just as I reached the Jeep. Time to go home, but this was anice leg stretcher before the drive back to the heat of the Valley. |
