| no partners | | With some upcoming trips to the area, I wanted to check on conditions, throwing in a small peak bag to justify the mileage. Baldy Mountain (now Francis Rogers Mountain) is usually accessed via 2HIKERZ's trail from the southeast. Seeing as I was headed up Morgan City Wash, I just parked and hit it from the west off trail. A little brushy at the start, with some lose slopes near the top - otherwise smooth sailing. Nice views of Hell's Canyon Wilderness and cool temps.
Post hike, I drove up Morgan City Wash and Cedar Basin Road to check out the Horse Creek and Burro Flats trail heads. Upon opening the Burro Flats podium, I was greeted with a nest of hornets. 
Woke up real quick and ran to the truck, evading all but one bite. 
Prickly Pear at peak ripeness, ocotillo leafed in and the ground spongy from recent rain. Didn't see soul after I left the pavement. |
