| partners | | We got started a little before 10AM, and Pima Canyon was packed, with almost all the road spots taken in addition to the lot. That, of course, translated into very busy trails. The tourists were out in full force...someone stopped me on National and asked, "Is this the way to the rock formation?" When I asked which one, she said, "Any." If you're looking for any rock formation, I guess you're in luck.
TBK wanted to go all the way down to Mormon TH, so I went ahead and did two laps down and back up. The crowds were terrible--I think I preferred the Santas last week. On the hike out, I did a second lap on Marcos de Niza to make it a double-double. Aside from the crowded trails, it was a nice day to be outside--there were scattered clouds throughout, but very little haze and temps in the upper 60s. |

After that we went down to the rock house and did the Mormon Loop. On the way back we took Pima road to Beverly and over to Desert Classic and back to car for a 6 miler. It was warming up but we were off the mountain by 8:30ish. Trail was in usual shape. Nice to get a south Mountain hike in and catch up with Linda while she is visiting AZ.!
