It took a lot longer to walk out of Tucson than I thought, but I had some encouragement along the way. Only about 100 miles left, the next three or four days will be spent crossing the desert to Patagonia, my last town stop before the border. I think. I haven’t really looked at the […]

Into Tucson on the AZT
Behind the Tent Door, sounds like a movie title #AZT #sobo
Mt. Lemmon Cookie Cabin, AZT

Casa Rivera, Oracle, AZ
When you remember to pack out a burrito for the 20 mile, 4,000 feet climb… #sogood #AZT #sobo
Oracle Let Me Down
Been looking forward to this for days. Southwestern Brisket Sandwich… #Mmm #AZT #sobo Sadly the Ore House Hilltop Tavern Bartender WAY over charged me, making me never want to return…
Pushing to Oracle
Home for the night. Supposed to be thunder and lightning until morning. Listening to the rain. Thinking about burgers. #AZT #sobo
First Rattlesnake on the Arizona Trail
First rattlesnake of the trail, that woke me up, middle of nowhere, can’t tell if I’m walking or showing off my sassy pose, and the view from inside my tent. #AZT #sobo
Cacti at the Low Point of the Arizona Trail
The Arizona Trail, cacti, inside and out, climbing out of the low point, and new sunglasses… Maybe. Time to get rid of some stuff while I take a few days off trail for my birthday. Not where I planned on being, but it’s where I am. #AZT #sobo

What I thought was going to be one night walking across the desert mountains has turned into three nights. I’m hurting, my pack is too heavy, and it’s way too beautiful out here to hurry. #AZT #sobo
