Carrizo Canyon, Grunt BM 2/12/2024
Ready to go hiking?
Yes we are ready. I will be testing my new stent. So I will see.
Triple cactus.
Carrizo Canyon that will change into Carrizo Gorge.
Found it. Stick figures on a boulder.
More stuff.
Nice mortero.
Carol will make us some breakfast.
Everybody is trying to figure up what these pictographs present.
Our complete group picture.
We will be splitting here. Most of the group will go up to 1436.
Looking back.
Our part is going up to Grant BM. So far the canyon is fine to walk in.
Canyon changed into catclaw paradise so we are going up.
It is steep. My Abbott 4mm x 23mm stent is running on all cylinders.
Still going up.
Looking into Carrizo Gorge.
This is not it yet. Just one bump on a ridge.
Here we are with a register. There is no pen inside and our pen is not working so we can’t sign in.
Our group.
The BM.
Way down is on the ridge.
Almost down.
Just couple miles to our cars.
Group enjoying the afterhike party.
