Just another trip up on Superstition Mountain to explore a little and take in the scenery. There were several hikers out on this trip but nothing like the winter herd. A few weeks back I noticed a lot of peanuts on the trail but they turned out to be Jojoba fruit. I've read that the natives ate these and gave some a try. They have a mild walnut flavor but are a bit harder than most nuts. The fruit is not digestible by most mammals so they satisfy the appetite but cause weight loss. I looked online but you can't buy them. :lol: After Hiking onto the Flatiron, I hiked north and explored the hoodoos and made my way back to Peak 5024. The cloud cover this morning keep the it nice and cool early on. A nice morning hike before the heat.
