Usery Mountain Park, Another day, another walk

We took a little break today from the hustle and bustle of Leisure World and took the short drive to Tonto National Park.  It was our second visit to Usery Pass Mountain this year.  There are dozens of trails to choose from in the park and week days are quiet, not crowded like weekends. 

No dirt to speak of and even less water and these California Poppies 
still manage to survive the odds of the desert.

 Follow Robert's crunchy footsteps.

Not resting here, only waiting for Yvonne to catch up.

Yvonne sitting in one of the interesting formations that have eroded away
 by years of wind and weather.

Huge boulders to walk around.

Where's the trail??

No problem. There it is.

Nice granite perch to admire the view from and enjoy
 lunch before hiking back.
