Work interfered with my plans for a sunrise hike, so I opted for a sunset hike. The heat was going good on Thursday, but I figured it would be ok going close to sunset. I drove out to Canyon Lake and explored a little around the lake and then headed over to the marina to park.

I hiked up the hill to the first viewpoint, the clouds and hazy conditions made the southern view ho-hum, so I hiked back down towards the lake to see the sunset. The clouds looking north and west were much more agreeable.

The color show only lasted about 15 minutes, but it was amazing. I waited to see if there would be any afterglow with all those clouds, but the sun was blocked on the western horizon. I hiked down to the truck just as the twilight ended.

A quick but hot afternoon/early evening hike.
