Nothing Shaking

Northwest flank of Tortugas Mountain

The wind was calm early this morning, but it has really picked up now in advance of a cold front blowing in the from the west.  Temperatures will be lower tomorrow.  On our hike we saw nobody, not even at a distance.  It's always nice to have the feeling you're out in the wildnerness alone.
