I'm planning on doing the loop around Weaver's Needle on Monday, Memorial day. It'll be a 5am start at Peralta TH, Bluff Springs trail, Terrapin trail, Dutchman trail, then Peralta back to TH. It's about 12.5 miles. I may jog parts of it because I want to finish before noon. I just really need to get out for 4-6 hours of good strong hiking so if an alternate route presents itself we could change the plan along the way. _________________ It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring. -- Carl Sagan |

Enjoy your Day and Hike. Possible Jog in the Park, eh? Wow!!
Weather looks good but a bit toasty as the day wears on. But sounds as though you'll be done before the heat really settles in
Take care out there _________________ Wanderingsoul (Michelle)

Thanks Michelle. I ended up just keeping a fast pace with a few stops here and there. Terrapin is getting overgrown again but it's not as bad as some spots on Peralta between Fremont saddle and the Dutchman trail. I was off the trail by 11:30am. Saw a desert iguana, my first one in the wild. Forgot to take along the camera so his identity is protected. His tail was sticking out of a crack in a rock. When I touched it, he hissed at me and pulled it further into the crack. _________________ It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring. -- Carl Sagan |
