Saturday's Morning Trek

This & next:  ocotillo leaves still green
Dr. K, Willow and I followed our usual route this morning; on the drive to the trailhead we saw the Basset people and their hounds, but we spotted no one else in the desert.

It felt quite comfortable out there today with a temperature in the low 70s, some clouds and a steady wind.  Despite the pleasant conditions Willow took her standard number of shade breaks:  7.

After the hike we took a long drive before heading home.


Willow and our favorite yucca
