for the past month or so me and my bro have been getting up early (9:00) and goin hiking at South Mountain a few miles from my house. this time i finally remembered to bring my camera. Its a six mile hike and it goes through some cool places. we were lucky enough to have it rain a little (just as we came up on a cave-tpye thing so we could stay dry) and all the plants started looking good.
there are a few flowers in bloom. this one was sharing space with a dead Ocotillo.
there were alot of these growing in little patches under the shade of boulders or other bushes.
i couldnt decide which pic to post so ill post both.
heres some green lichen just for fun
and real quick i took a pic of this little flower on a bush next to the car.
heres lookin back on our trail as well as a few others. mountain bikers were constantly passing us.
heres a place called hidden valley. you can see a little bit of the trail down there. one of my brothers is up on a boulder on the right.
and heres me.
well i hope you enjoyed them. i havent found any snakes yetlol...maybe someday. i havent been looking very hard.
p.s. did these pics take a long time to load for anyone? am i not supposed to have so many pics in one post?
