Quick morning trip up AZ#3 before the afternoon rains made these mountains even more enjoyable. There was a single downed tree that hadn't been cleared. It was about 4" in diameter and 6" off the ground.

There will be no return trips for me to the high point nor the gov't trail in the near future so this was an out n back.

We passed three ladies who I'd bet money knew azbackpackr and two guys from alpine out exercising their bear and lion hunting hound pack. I might have almost dognapped one of them. All were adorbs.

Even more raspberries on Escudilla than Baldy, enough to fill several buckets if you so desired. The stove is still hanging on in the floor joists of the tower shell. Perhaps it will never fall?
