High Humidity

Next to the ancient Soaptree Yucca in the left branch

The morning was fairly pleasant today, but the high humidity made conditions slightly unpleasant.  Nevertheless, Dr. K, Willow and I enjoyed our hike which followed the same route we've taken the past several days.  We saw the Basset people crossing Tellbrook Road as we were driving to the trailhead; and they were behind us for a bit until they descended LDR and crossed into the major east/west arroyo heading home.  The hounds were quite vociferous at first.  We saw no one else during our sojourn.

Crossover trail had water running in it
