Morning weather is nice, later it will get warm with not much breeze.
John is leading us to the Airplane Ridge.
This monument used to be guarded by bees. It is now occupied by annoying big black flies.
Stonewall Peak.
It is bushy on all sides.
Japacha ahead.
Open trail.
Coyote size fox.
Can’t see me, can’t smell me.
Mistletoe tree.
When we got to Japacha, flies that followed us were reinforced by flies that were already waiting there for us.
Looking west.
We have to keep moving.
This is nice.
Lunch is in the open. We have to be quick. It is a feeding competition, us or them (f.. flies).
Back down.
Open air restrooms in Primitive Camp. No toilet paper, just flies.
Almost back.
We are back. Waiting, who will show next?
Our group. Corona will make us stronger. Rob did not make it.
