| Around the north side of the mountain |
We left the car in the Sunset parking area this morning and started hiking clockwise around Tortugas (Tortoise) Mountain. There was quite a bit of automobile traffic on Dripping Springs Road on the north side of the mountain, but once we got on the east side away from the road we saw nobody--for the rest of the hike. At first it was pretty cold, with a stiff wind lowering the wind-chill factor; but by the time we'd gone halfway around the mountain the sun had warmed things up substantially. It was good to be alone in the desert outback.
