| no partners | | A quick loop in the Southern Usery area this morning. I parked at the Crismon/McKellips TH and made a clockwise loop starting at the Channel Trail, connecting to the Blevins Trail and then taking the Spillway Trail back to the Channel Trail.
I had a couple of goals set for this hike. Get out and take some pictures of the saguaro blooms and exercise my ailing hip. I accomplished both.
Lots of mountain bikers out this morning. A few trail runners and hikers as well. Very pleasant at the start and I finished up before it got hot. The trails were the expected flat and groomed. That’s just what I needed.
The blooms this year are not bad. Pretty good compared to other flowers this “spring”. The lack of rain didn’t seem to bother the saguaros as many/most of them had some sort of flowers blooming, already bloomed or about to bloom.
Baby steps for my journey back to healthy. I gave hiking a 2 week rest and started PT with the ortho docs. I will be back to abusing my joints on the crazy ones in no time. |
