I've hiked higher in elevation (when I've been in better shape than I am now), but what really got me was the short, slippery trail to get up there with no steps.<br /><br />Thanks, Bob. I've really enjoyed your winter bird photos.<br /><br />Randy, looks like the rain has already passed for at least a week, even though there were red(?) thunderbolts in yesterday's forecast. All is not lost yet for the season as we should have another 3-4 months of potential rain. I worry any late green growth may be an issue for summer wildfires.Katie (Nature ID)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17730655720390625839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8210757346121712556.post-24492903436320765712012-01-22T20:23:04.589-08:002012-01-22T20:23:04.589-08:00I'm with you Katie.

I'm feeling cheated because we should be doing waterfall hikes by now.Randyhttp://randyswaypoints.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8210757346121712556.post-52357064570759103032012-01-21T12:37:48.906-08:002012-01-21T12:37:48.906-08:00Beautiful natural photos.Beautiful natural photos.Bob Bushellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07819577478571292055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8210757346121712556.post-84435694620034906132012-01-19T10:54:19.227-08:002012-01-19T10:54:19.227-08:00Weather, eh, it's a puzzle.

There was a rain or sun fever that developed, depending upon the time of year. An almost physical manifestation of the yearning for a change in the sky. I don't miss it!<br /><br />That's some serious geography in the photos. No wonder you had aching muscles. Yeah, downhills are the worst. Just when you think gravity and momentum might work for you, o-oh, time to zigzag off the slope.<br /><br />Sending you thoughts of heavy clouds, laden with serious precipitation and the odd rumble of thunder!
