Nobody About

Looking around for other signs of life

There was only one car in the Sunset Parking lot when Becca and I set off on our trek this morning; and there was only one car (a different one) in the lot when we got back.  We saw neither of the car owners nor anybody else in the desert around the mountain.  Really got me to wondering where everybody was this morning.  It's pretty rare to see absolutely nobody during a farily-long hike.

This is the best shade to be found?
