After New Mexico we headed to Payson Arizona. We opted to do the Houston Brother Trail to Barbershop Trail and then Barbershop Canyon. Great time to hike in Payson, a few days before the 4th of July. I have never seen this place so empty. On the drive to the Houston Brother Trail only saw 1 car and there were maybe 3 people camping along the way. No one on the trails. Everything was really green. Saw one very large tree that exploded from a lightning strike. Probably occurred during the storm the night before. The pine scent was still in the air and the tree parts dripping with sap. Must of been something to see. Barbershop Creek was running but not enough to make it difficult to cross. Ferns were really thick along the creek. I have done this hike along Barbershop Creek before but it never gets old.
