Rainy Saturday


We've had a lot of rain over the past few days, and the moisture that's hanging around has made for some pretty spectacular scenery. Research Associate Becca and I were hiking on the Tortugas Mountain trail early this morning, unsure if we'd get rained upon. We lucked out, though, completing a 90-minute hike without even a sprinkle. The views were outstanding.
After our hike we drove over to the midpoint between the Sunset parking lot and the Monte Vista parking lot to get the following two photos.
Both were of the same general area of the Organs, but with slightly different cloud cover.
