| no partners | | Started at Pima Canyon and headed up and west, thought I might make telegraph pass trailhead but only made it near the TV antennae’s on tower road . There was a gaggle of production people and vehicles just below the towers. If you see an Indian motorcycle commercial someday with a couple in leather sharing a motorcycle the surrounding scenery may look familiar.Since there was no casting call for the part of “sweaty old man “ the ranger placed me in a holding pattern to allow the filming of the commercial between Buena Vista Trail Head and the towers to continue, briefly chatted with a couple hiking looking for the Chinese wall ,told them I wasn’t familiar with it, after consulting a map turns out we happened to be standing on the edge of it. Though a nice day it was warming up in the afternoon so I decided to head back, typical weekday crowd with maybe a dozen hikers and bikers passed after leaving Pima Canyon. Wildflowers getting sparse except brittle bush ,all the green is turning brown, bikers alerted me a couple of times about snakes next to the trail but only saw one.Decided to take the wash,Beverly and the loop back instead of the road. |
