Sorry it has been a while since pictures -- life is crazy!



Sometime in December of 2010
Turkey Creek Trail, on the far east end of the Rincons. Lots of dirt road to get to it and then (if you are up for it) some more serious jeep trails that will save you a couple miles hike.

This is a fabulous, but hot, even in the winter hike. There is hardly any shade and you walk along the top of a ridgeline.
































We did find this hidden glade on the trail, about a mile in that was shady and cool -- a good place for a snack or lunch.





















Boys in nerf gear! Let the war begin.



















Yes, that is a periodic table of elements pillow case! Why??

If you live in Tucson, HIKE THIS TRAIL! It is fantastic. Hard on the old knees cause you are going UP fast, but the view is splendid. Probably want to avoid it if the temp is above 80, there is no shade and it will be HOT
