| partners | | For mid-June I had planned a week trip up here and had some invites to join me. Due to some unexpected CA family needs I was not able to attend but fortunately Oregon Hiker, RWStorm, and Tough Boots were 
Not being able to go up in June, it was kind-of mandatory that I "get-out-of-Dodge" to this favorite Mogollon Rim camp-spot for a week in July for mostly R&R with two planned (new for me) loop hikes on my agenda. I knew that this July camping location at 7435ft elevation was going to be wet due to our always active Monsoon Season on the Rim but I did not anticipate for the 8 nights / 9 days I was here this trip (a new Camp G/H vehicle camping record for me), that it would storm on six days of the nine.
I had originally planned to exit back on Tues-7/26 but ended up with my second planned loop hike on this day.. with rain. My campsite was soaked with my afternoon return and I needed a full day after for it to dry-out. Fortunately, this Wednesday day after was beautiful and without rain which allowed me to have a dry campsite to take down, pack, and load on my 9th morning..Thurs-7/28 (My thanks to Brian on 7/24 for the extra 10# bag of ice and to Mary Jo on 7/25 for the extra 3 gallons of H2O or I would not have made it for this nine day period).. Prior-to the extra 3 gallons, I had originally brought-up 23 gallons of H2O (all the cooking & cleaning at Camp G/H uses a whole lot of water  )
I really enjoyed this longer stay and having Angela, Kelly, and Mary-Jo stay over for 2 nights/3 days with a short day visit by BeeBee- Brian. |
