| no partners | | I hiked along some trails in the area to find some geocaches. It was a loop out to a wash, down to Camp Creek, up a hill to some ruins, over to Camp Creek waterfall, and back up the Maricopa Trail to my start.
It was cold, windy, and overcast when I started. I put my wind-jacket on at the truck before starting. For a while, I wished I put my gloves on too.
I was planning on heading farther north on the Maricopa Trail, but the weather was looking pretty nasty, so I turned back down, then headed up a nearby hill and checked out the ruins. It started sprinkling a but while up top, so I didn't spend much time looking before heading down, then over to the Camp Creek Waterfall.
The waterfall is a popular spot and there were plenty of people there, even today. The water was flowing fairly well.
On my way out from the falls, it started raining fairly hard. I pulled my umbrella out and continued on. Shortly after reaching the Maricopa Trail, I put my pack's rain cover on. It rained most of the way back to my truck. |
