| no partners | | got a late start this morning
couldn't decide what to do
had done a version of this hike nine years ago
lost dog to the overlook, then quartz with a side trip to the quartz outcropping
continued on quartz to where it dropped into a wash
i remember a good trail above the wash
there was a sign stating the trail is in the wash; wish i had taken a photo of it
anyway, the wash sucked, with deep gravel and bugs
didn't feel like a mile of that, so i turned around
took the long way back on the jeep trail, ringtail, anazasi spur and hit the nature trail to get double digits
this was not my favorite hike
the best thing from lost dog is sunrise peak
nice day, got ten miles in, good enough
estimating elevation gain since i can't get route cloud to work
will revise when it does |

. Returned the way I came. Traffic was moderate. About 20 hikers and 2 bikers all told. Temps were nice. Upper 60's, but very windy. I ended up carrying my hat I my hand as it kept blowing off. Sad to see that homes are encroaching on the Fountain Hill side of the preserve. That was a gorgeous hike from the east side. I'm not sure what kind of visual impact it has as you climb from that side.
. It was very windy throughout the hike. Steady flow of hikers and some bikers made it feel like I was not alone. Not much wildlife to speak of. I photographed a new bird for me but it came out too blurry.
