| no partners | | Probably my last off trail adventure until fall but the slight drop in temperature was enough to go for it. I've wanted to get up here for a while but the routes looked rugged. I finally hiked the area and took an angled approach that cut down on the steep ups and downs. The mesa is flat in part but has peaks and valleys mixed in. There are many boulders and a nice mix of brush, pines and grasses. I looked for Klondike Spring but only found a dry basin where my GPS pointed to. The turkey vultures were circling me up there but I think they were just riding the wind. The flora, fauna and artifacts were plain but geology won the day with the boulders and one uncommon stack that is a rare sight. It wasn't hot but I did go through my water and had a cramp hiking down for a short distance. A good day in the wild. |
