| This & next: Desert Shaggy Mane mushroom |
Dr. K, Willow, Frio and I trekked up to First Arroyo, stayed inside for a brief respite, and then turned around and headed back.
We saw nobody hiking while we were out there and heard only one distant gunshot. We did see and hear a lunatic dirt biker who sped south on LDR, crested the hill into the upper flatland, and then flew down Tellbrook Road at light speed. Internal combustion engines are the bane of desert solitude.

I like that last photo of the desert floor, mountains, blue sky, and white clouds.
