Swainsy Yet Again

This & next 5:  Swainsy
The best part of this morning's hike was spotting Swainsy again; it was perched atop the Lone Soaptree Yucca and stayed there as we approached so I could get a better photo.  While we were out there we encountered the pickup truck woman and her loose dog, but her dog, I believe, had learned a lesson about approaching Willow too closely; Willow couldn't chase, though, because I had her on lead.  We did a bit of buswhacking off the regular route, but, perhaps, added distance to the entire trek.  Weather was good.
