This was truly a last second idea. Original idea came unraveled the night before. Met for carpool at 8:30. Straightforward for a while. Then leave trail for open country. Finding the ruins was easier than expected.

The climb back down was the most difficult portion. We took two spills each on the way down. We then left the route to check out something we'd spotted from above. Inspected the wreck before carrying on.

We meandered off a bit again to check out the spring. Water was flowing. Continued to close out the loop. As we got closer to the start, we began to see participants in the 50 mile run again. Interesting outing of moderate difficulty.
