| partners | | Preston the great introduced me to the Huachuca Mountains six years ago. I've enjoyed every hike in this range thus far. Today we followed Doc Fraley's recent loop from a month ago. The wildflowers here are among the most consistent large annual display I can think of over the years. The yellow blanket show is a simple daisy you would overlook if it wasn't for the astounding abundance. The Pinaleno's have more exotics in my experiences. Unfortunately they are hit and miss year to year. This display is jaw dropping with the nice crisp vertical wrinkles on the range.
As much as I enjoy the wildflowers, this hike is great regardless. A mile of raspberry and blackberry is borderline torture. A controllable... wise men wear pants. Someday I'll wise up. The uncontrollable for this "Southern California Style Coastal Experience" as jj calls it is the humidity. Yet aside from the first quarter mile outta the starting gate the elevation is nothing fierce.
My first time down Wisconsin Canyon & over on Comfort Springs 109. Wow, gotta check out Ramsey more! Love Miller Peak but still need to hit Pat Scott, Miller Canyon, Ida, Oversite, Bear, etc... |
