| no partners | | | Quick overnight trip to my normal spot on Cave Creek trail, looking to see how the leaves were looking, starting from the seven springs area. The road is never bad but has obviously seen recent grading and I don't think there was a single pothole or bump. I went to the area last year and found this spot and ended up going once a month to document the changes in the creek/flora. With that said, my first trip last year was not the right time; not a leaf to be found in a tree. This year, it was quite nice! I think i was still a week or two past prime but it's also a weird area where there are many trees that won't be prime for another week or two and many that are past... I need to research and learn more about the various species. Either way, spent a very pleasant night alongside the creek with a small rainstorm hitting around 0200. Around 0550 or so, it picked back up again and continued with various intensity until around 1000. I had stuff downloaded from netflix and no plans, so I just relaxed in my tent until it stopped which was early enough to meet my wife for a late lunch at Local Johnnys in Cave Creek. Overall, nice for the first backpack of the season in the lower desert and I've enjoyed documenting the same campsite month after month. |
