| partners | | This hike was great fun! Definitely need 4 wheel drive to get there. We saw three Javelina on the road as we were driving in. Spooked a big cottontail along the trail. Mark saw a deer. Once back in our neighborhood a Bobcat walked across the road. Great day for viewing wildlife! The trail was in good condition. We got to the area we came to see and there is still some water in the pools there. Nice warm day but the water is still too cool for a swim. Spotted a covey of quail coming in for a drink. We had time to relax for awhile and take a break in that area. The sun was nice and warm. On the hike out it got very warm so we appreciated the nice cool breeze. Driving out there must have been 50 of the offroad vehicles. There were two parked at the Bellota Ranch area where there is a bathroom facility. After that it seemed like a constant stream of traffic and dust. Must have been some kind of convention. |
