| no partners | | It's been a while since I have visited this cool formation and I needed a short hike to hit before the blast furnance started up.
I drove down the the rough road and started up over the first hump. The trail to this one is getting more and more defined. It's almost an actual trail now!
The temps were in the 80's when I started out about 515am and in the 90's when I finished up a little past 8am. I took a couple of detours on this one, checking for interesting things.
I saw a never ending stream of cars, trucks, truck pulling boats and motorcyles driving on Hwy 88, but as expected, I had this place all to myself.
I considered climbing up inbetween the horns, but my bum-hip reminded me that was not going to happen. I settled for exploring a little above and then started back to the truck.
Very crispy out there. It's clear our desert is needing some rains. I hope we get some soon.
I was scouting for possible astrophotography spots and I believe I identified a couple. Maybe a little night hiking is in my future in this area.
A nice and quick day in the Goldfields. |
