| partners | | Kelly organized a group hike utilizing some of the SoMo trails I don’t get a chance to hike very often. I was a few minutes late meeting up with her, Bruce, and John, thanks to annoying traffic between my daughter’s school and the trailhead. It’s been so long since I’ve hiked with Bruce, he wasn’t sure I still existed. Or maybe he just forgot who I am. We got started up Geronimo a few minutes after 0730. Occasional shade helped the climb feel less terrible.
At the Buena Vista lot up top, we debated our route options while staying within time constraints. Headed east on National, first making a side trip to the benchmark, then continued east to Mormon. Headed down Mormon trail, which I’ve not been on in quite a while. Saw one Speckled rattler, which John and I had passed without noticicing it, so we had to backtrack when Bruce hollered for us. Small one, curled up in the shade. After that, it was a quick walk through the neighborhood back to the cars.
Nice mirning for a workout hike, and good to hike with Kelly, Bruce, and John again! |
