| no partners | | I wanted to get in a short hike to take advantage of the warm conditions, before the storm roared in with a return to chilly weather. Having it be mostly cloudy during the afternoon made it just right. I walked the road up to Mam-A-Gah, then returned down the wash, which is always fun. Since there hasn't been a great deal of rain this winter, I was surprised to see how much water there was at the seep by the old dam/petroglyph area. There actually was a small flow in a few spots. Moist sand conditions extended downstream some distance. Quite nice. 
In days gone by, you would see lots of vehicles in the lot during morning hours in cool season, but not many in the afternoon. That is not the case these days, as the lot can be nearly full even in the afternoon. I was surprised by the number of out of state plates, with most from California, but quite a few other states as well. I had some nice conversations with hikers I met while walking down the wash, and was kind of amazed by the number of first time visitors I encountered. |
