Bushwhacking Extension

1st 2:  views from LDR-A arroyo

Frio, Willow and I did a lot of bushwhacking this morning in addition to our regular hike.  We explored an area toward the east that we've only been in once before.  Heelers loved it.

When we finally looped back to the left branch arroyo we followed our normal route until we exited the right branch arroyo at the steep hill east of the waiting CR-V.

It was a good outing despite the continuing bad air that engulfed us.
