First Hike 2025

Picacho and environs
Dr. K, Willow and I did the first hike of the new year this morning.  Just as we got started we spotted the Basset people and their hounds heading down LDR.  We also saw Two-White-Dogs-Lady just north of the Tellbrook Arroyo.

The temperature was just below 40F when we headed out, but a cold wind made conditions feel much worse; we shortened the trek a bit because of it.

Dr. K went shopping at Target after we got home.
