Good as usual. They are in a losing battle stringing new barbed wire fencing. Stretches of supplies. Stretches of two wires. Perhaps half done. Three to four breaches, including one guy parked on the other side... Lol

Busy, sign posted about the closing as feng shui desert hater mentioned.

The boring basin is a pleasant cheery green. Miner's Needle approach is at it's Zenith.
Whiskey
Trail condition seemed the same as always to me.

Synopsis
Good to get out on a baby steps loop to get back into hiking. Good to see Bruce while he's still in his 60s. |

Wildflowers Observation Moderate
Lots of blooming brittlebush, heading up towards Miners Needle. Large stretches of small groups of 6-20 poppies. Not fields, snobs would rate it absolutely horrible. Lupine was notable, seemingly darker purple. Minimal Stinknet on hike, substantial along US60. Owl clover in one area. Phlox, buckwheat, others |
