Joined TboneKathy for a morning SoMo hike with no particular route in mind when we started. I went up Marcos de Niza, then we took National to Hidden Valley and down to Mormon TH and back up. We looped back on Javelina, and I returned via Marcos de Niza. Relatively quiet on the trails today with very few mountain bikers out. The ocotillo blooms are slowing down, but more saguaro flowers than last week. Didn't see any snakes or interesting wildlife, but the Horseback Hike Patrol made another appearance today. Ended up unintentionally hitting exactly 10.00 miles...very precise outcome for aimless wandering.
