I needed a nice, flat and easy trail to meet my hiking hankering and this one always does the trick. Still dealing with my knee issue, but it's getting better. It looks like I will not need surgery, just continue the PT, keep exercising and avoid any crazy hikes (for now).

With the weather getting hotter, it's always a good idea to hit the Supes early. Jason and I did a early start and got in 5 miles, out and back. We started at the LGM East Trailhead. On the way in, we had to dodge a big trail of garbage some a**sholes dropped along Peralta Road right before the new Peralta Park. Looked like construction debris. Some people need to be tossed in to cholla patch....grrrr.

There was one vehicle in the parking lot and another one pulled in we were starting. We saw the two hikers from that truck as I plodded along at turtle speed. We did come across a younger couple right before the Carney Trail who took a wrong turn looking for the Wave Cave. We set them on the proper course.

No critters, except a few lizards, bunnies and birds. I have seen many snakes and a gila monster on this trail before, but they must have slept in and I missed them all this time around.

My knee was feeling it at the end, but it wasn't too bad the rest of the day. I am getting more optimistic about that.

This trail is easy, but it is also beautiful. The Three Sisters is the star of the show on this end of the trail. Such a cool formation.
