Mike and I hiked a loop of 8.5 miles in McDowell Mountain Park on Friday. We saw lots of flowers, especially in the washes. The grasses are quite dry now - nearly all are brown. I spent perhaps two hours on Friday evening pulling grass seeds out of my socks and (trail running) gaiters. I need to find some better gaiters for that sort of thing.
