TGIF, but Y?

Trekking down from the mountain
Becca and I took a moderately-long hike west of Tortugas Mountain this morning.  When we were midway into the outback, while I was bending down photographing the unidentified yellow flowers below, we heard a distant voice calling out my name.  It was Gregg heading to the mountaintop.  How he spotted us I cannot say since we must have appeared to him as spots in the distance.  We did encounter several mountain bikers, one guy with a Husky called "Tyson" who Becca growled at for being overly cheeky.
