Back to the Lower Treks

First 3:  long distance views of the Organ Mountains

Back in the lower desert for a fairly chilly start this morning; conditions weren't too bad, though, because of high humidity.  It rained during the night and into the early morning hours today.

Willow, Frio and I did our new regular hike under dynamic skies; the clouds over the Organ Mountains were especially beautiful.  I'm not sure the photos I took today really do justice to the spectacular views.
