Scrambling on Sunday

Many people were out and about Tortugas Mountain this morning, so Becca and I did our best to avoid them. Not that we're anti-social, but bumping into others tends to diminish the wilderness experience. Peek-a-boo moon.

This marker, far out from Tortugas, seemed to delineate a narrow, long-unused trail.

Two hikers enjoy the Sunday morning serenity.

This could be a Black-throated Sparrow, but I didn't get close enough to identify it.
