Peralta Canyon remains one of my favorite hikes, it's not just the workout but the scenery never tires so I'm starting off 2016 by doing it again. I knew that this was going to be a busy day at the TH so I got there around 7:30 ish, there were several vehicles in the lot already but I had the trail mostly to myself. At the Saddle. I met a guy and two girls who were going on to Robbers Roost then down Carney to complete the loop. I was going on out to Pinon Point and they decided to join me for the scenery.

The day quickly warmed and before long I was shedding the layers that were initially necessary. There was a bit of an Easterly breeze up along the top, but still comfortable. On the way back, the group broke off at the Saddle and headed on to the Roost, while I headed back down the trail. I could not believe the number of hikers that I ran into heading up trail.... It was like follow-the-leader as I kept meeting groups and singles the entire way back.

Beautiful day, great weather, wonderful start to the new year. Happy New Year HAZ'ers, hope to see ya on the trails. :y:
