Met up with four of the Estrella Trailblazers for a hike on FINS trails this morning. Nice cool start and some early cloud cover to keep the sun off our backs. Saw two other hikers and no bikers. Dropped some stuffed animals off at the Enchanted Forest on Spent Spade trail.

Led a mountain bike ride on FINS trails this morning with my buddy Marc and some of his east valley friends (Jason, Jeff, Ray, and Mike). They were very accommodating of my selection of black diamond trails which provided for lots of climbing opportunities. Great group of riders, kept it tight, no crashes, no mechanical breakdowns, no drama, awesomesauce! Saw lots of other hikers and bikers out on the FINS trails this morning.

Went for a brunch ride across the street at FINS this morning. Met up with fellow retiree and MTB'r Steve near the Westar entrance and we joined forces for a ride. Did a clockwise loop around the perimeter with Steve and then hit some more trails on my way back home. Definitely feeling the heat by the end of the ride.

Joined the Estrella Mountain Warriors hiking group (Nina, Vicki, and John) for a hike on north Pirate trails in Estrella Mountain Ranch. Parked at the staging area at Sendero drive and Estrella Parkway (east of the traffic signal). Hiked clockwise on Round Up trail, Upside Down, Upper Pass, Saddle Up, Beam Me Up, back on Saddle Up to the parking area. Started cool, sun warmed us up for a bit, then the clouds and wind came in and cooled us back down. We kept a good pace going for the hike with minimal stops.

Got out for a lunch ride on the fat bike today. Started in FINS across the street, Maricopa trail towards Dogbone, desert two track and farm roads to Germann and Rainbow Valley roads east to Avondale Ave north to EMRP fence line, followed the fence line west and north to Pedersen access road west to the power line, northwest to Sunrise/Maricopa trail back to FINS and home. Saw a trail runner and mountain biker on FINS trails and got passed by a sedan/jalopy on Germann on their way to shoot guns. There was already a Jeep Gladiator parked at the big dirt pile shooting away. Always makes me nervous being in proximity of desert shooters.

Late start fat bike adventure ride starting from Estrella Foothills Community Park. Started on the sandy two track fence line trail that runs you over to the EMRP Iron Ranger. I haven't memorized my new Maricopa Park Pass number yet, so I had to unpack my phone to check the picture I took of the pass. It's good to have that information on your person in case you get stopped by a ranger, which has never once happened to me after all these years. Took the Crossover trail to Pedersen, counter clockwise over to Homestead Wash, managed to follow the wash all the way back to Pedersen with some hike a bike, Pedersen back to Gadsden, back again to Pedersen to Crossover, Jolly Roger, Park Ave, Sunrise back to Foothills Community Park. Saw 11 bikers and one hiker. Sand continues to accumulate on the trails.

Did a rehab hike with my PA friend Tricia. Met in the 55th Ave and Pinnacle Peak parking lot and selected a space not covered in fresh broken glass. Tricia and I did a counter clockwise loop on Coach Whip and Arrowhead Point trails. No shortage of new hiking friends sharing the trails. Weather was perfect!

Lots of traffic on New river trail up to about Happy Valley Road.

I was suffering from a mild case of activity deficiency this morning so I snuck across the street for a quick loop on FINS trails. Went commando style with no backpack, no water, no hiking poles and jogged for a short distance here and there. Perfect weather. Saw one neighbor walking her big bushy husky on the power line road on my way out.
