linda had not hiked in the tortolitas before, so we chose the super loop for our hike today
got going around 0830
did the loop clockwise, taking a break at the windmill about halfway
the fire damage is much less noticeable than two years ago
looked like it might rain for much of the hike but only a few tiny sprinkles
overcast, breezy at times, cool temps
we saw very few people
this is a great hike - good footing, good views and a variety of trails
scenic southern arizona terrain, with granite boulders, grasslands and lots of saguaros
plentiful wildflowers, including owl clover and chia
a highlight was linda spotting a gila monster on alamo springs trail :)
finished up mid afternoon to clearing skies
nice hiking with linda as always - thanks!
