A bunch of us decided to hike to the Bowen Stone house and semi-famous Painted Cave.

We had a large group of 8 - Mauro, Marcia, Isabela, Mauro Jr, Chris M, Brian C, Patrick C, and myself.

Also invited were Brian W, Mike B, and Lonnie S but they could not make it.

We arrived around 9.15 am and started off on the Yetman trail at the Camino de Oeste trailhead. We took the trail all the way to the Bowen stone house. Mauro brought a drone and got some nice aerial photos along the trail. We took a short break at the stone house, then continued along the trail to the Painted Cave. 5 of us made it to the painted cave, while Marcia, Isabela, and Mauro Jr stayed on the East side of the wash and decided not to continue any further.

We got some nice photos of the painted cave. Brian and Chris hiked up the cliffs and explored around and nearly made it to the high point.

On the hike back, Brian and I tried to find a saguaro with an arrow through it which I was able to find in past years but we could not find this time. I suppose I will need to mark to GPS position so I can find it again, assuming the arrow is still there.

We took another break at the stone house and got some photos and headed back to the trailhead.
