I was hoping for some rain but ended up dry. I started a little later than normal (7am) and thought it would be cooler than last week. The sky was overcast early on but eventually the sun came out for a while. The trails have lots of growth. The Dutchman is ok but Cavalry is like walk through a cactus garden and Boulder has lots of plants. Second Water is a jungle by the spring but good everywhere else. I took a stroll up Old Squaw Canyon and that was a workout. There are lots of boulders to hop and brush to push through and/or crawl under. My water ran out so I headed back earlier than I wanted. So as soon as I left the trailhead it started to rain. Maybe next time.
