Thursday Trek with Cattle Dogs

At the side of LDR-A

Dr. K felt under the weather this morning so it was the "O"s and me again today.

We saw nobody else in our section of northern Chihuahuan Desert even though we did a lot of bushwhacking in the direction of the Organ Mountains; we even got well beyond the ridge we often follow.

We did eventually loop back to that ridge, trekking northward and then down the saddle before the hill.  Once we got back to the left branch arroyo we did the rest of our usual hike.
