Hiking on Sunday

Across to the flank of Tortugas
Typical Sunday trek with a little added distance this morning.  We bushwhacked out of the left branch arroyo to the saddle south of 4210 hill, climbed the hill and retraced our steps.

There was a white pickup truck parked at the corner of Tellbrook and Sonoma Ranch when we started and ended, but we never saw anybody else out in the desert.

After our hike we took a long ride listening to Matt Jones and Myron Medcalf on their Sunday Show, getting some pretty good laughs at their antics.
