Hump Day Hike

Yucca shadow
Not much to say about today's hike.  We did a moderately-long trek on the westside of Tortugas Mountain this morning.  Ran into only one person, a jogger just finishing his run.  Then Becca and I had the entire outback to ourselves.  It was hot and humid, but with a nice cool breeze.
