Big To-Do on the Mountain

Away from the mountain

The parking lot at the Sunset Area was already packed when Becca and I got out there this morning.  After a long hike--during which I realized I wasn't properly dressed for the cold--we returned to find the entire west side of the mountain completely overrun by people and cars.  My guess is that it was a high-school celebration because I could hear cheerleaders cheering atop Tortugas, and there were a lot of teenage voices emanating from within the ramada. 

Looking back

The road in

Desert Marigolds still blooming everywhere
