Needed to see what kind of damage the holidays did. About 15 minutes slower than the last time I did this loop back in October. Absolutely perfect weather conditions today. The New Year's resolution crowd was out in force, the parking lot was jammed by the time I got back to my car.

Finally caught a break on the weather. In the upper 60's to start and a pleasant 75 degrees at the finish. Doing an easy hike to keep my legs stretched before I go up to the Grand Canyon for a quick trip next week. My legs were fried from doing a lot of walking at a trade show up in Vegas on Tuesday & Wednesday.

Nothing too exciting, trails seem less busy than in year's past. Got back to the parking lot and it was only half full at 8:30 in the morning. Saw a tortoise again and in about the same spot I saw him two weeks ago.

I've been hitting pretty hard in the gym and that's been my focus for the past month. Needed an easy stroll to loosen my legs. Nothing exciting, went up Wild Burro and looped around Alamo Springs over the cutoff back down to Wild Burro. Did take a detour on the way back to the car and decided to check out the infamous Ritz trailhead facilities. Pretty swanky, air conditioned bathrooms with high end paper linens to wash your hands.

Got a dental implant two weeks ago and was forced by my dentist to lay low until this weekend. Looking for someplace that might be warmer than heading up any of the canyons in the Catalinas.

Got within 100 yards of 4416. The cloud line was at 4000 feet this morning and I made it up about 50 yards of the rock face that you need to scramble up before I bailed. Everything was like a sheet of ice and super slick, could have made it up but it would have been dicey coming down.
