| no partners | | A free afternoon in Tucson, what to do? Guess I'll drive up into the Catalinas and see what happens. I pulled over at Geology Vista, and about froze in the stiff breeze while trying to explore the defunct Vista Trail. Maybe I'll check out the snow higher up...
Rounding Lizard Rock, I entered a winter wonderland. I pulled over at the Bigelow trailhead, and got out to take a few photos. Ghostly cloud cover, still air, and 3 inches of fresh, untrodden snow drew me into the forest. Countless photos later, I reached the summit and its frosted towers, where I sent several "wish you were here" texts, before heading back. Driving down, I witnessed saguaro silhouettes and city lights in the coppery dusk, and then it was off to dinner with a friend. There's nothing quite like the sky island experience! |
