Hit the trail
Wow! The weather is great.The heavy rain always cleans years of debris from the slopes. The poppies are blazing orange and snakes are hungry.

Keep an eye out for oddities.

banded cactus
I have seen a half dozen cactus banded . They all were banded on the main body.The markings were 3 and 5 bands.Areas with many banded cacti should be regarded as practice areas.Any time you come across cactus markers in groups or duplicated they could be just practice areas. Many did exist on the ea...
