Another Tuesday, another desert hike.
We hiked The Treasure Loop trail (#56 shown on the map above)
14C and the trail is still damp from the overnight rain. Luckily the trail was not muddy.
Perfect conditions for the 2.4 mile/ ~500 ft elevation rise from the parking lot.
The "Green Boulder" (left) and "Praying Hands" (center)
Here we are at the Green Boulder bench at 2580' elevation. Directly above us is a rock outcropping called the Flatiron at 4861' elevation. The peak is a popular jumping off point for BASE jumping.
We saw 3 daredevils take a flying leap while we were hiking.
Some of the local wildlife.
After the hike we met at Filly's Roadhouse for lunch. The place rocks with live bands on the weekends but was quiet while we dined.
