Another short late afternoon hike close to home, this time to Papago Spring. I have done this multiple times on my way to Aliso Spring and the A20 Havoc plane crash site. On this hike we were just going to the Windmill and a little upstream to check out Papago Spring. The maps indicate the spring is a little upstream from the windmill. Found the area where I believe the spring is but like the creek it was dry. The trees and vegetation in the area indicate it is probably the site of the spring. Headed back the way we came. The Windmill was functioning (spinning but not pumping) and when there was a breeze would make a squeaking noise that could be heard for some distance. For a short late day hike it turned out to be a good workout, as like most jeep trails the 1.5 miles in was steep and rocky and the trip back was slow going also.
