Rockhouse & Butler Canyons 11/30/2020
Long drive on rough road to our parking spot.
The first half of the Rockhouse Canyon is not that scenic.
Made it to Hidden Spring mostly occupied by bees.
Brake in the shade. It is warm on sun.
Canyon will get more interesting ahead but we are climbing out of it.
There is some faint trail going up.
Including chollas.
Rockhouse Canyon.
Regrouping up at the Jackass Flat.
Toro Peak is above us.
One of the section markers. Rock obelisk in the middle has six notches on 3 sides. 666?!
Jackass Flat.
Our last SM is also our lunch place.

On a way to Butler Canyon.
Half shade, half sun.
Sunny ridge.
Canyon is mostly wide and feels never ending.
Some did not make it.
Nice rock.
Finally something interesting.
Looks like big drop but it is not.
Made it back.
John is back.
Sun is almost down so we have to start drive back while it is not total darkness.
