Day 20 - Scorpion

The Team addresses the trailhead.

This trail features lots of arroyo crossings.

The Keeper of the Arroyos. Beware,

Yet another Wildfire Lab attempt at waterless fish. This waterless widemouth bass can survive up to 10,000 years just like this.

The Team on the climb.

A thick trail of slime follows a slope in the slickrock. Could be the sentient moss is on the move. They have been searching for an internet connection for a few years. They want to try out online sports betting.

These prickly pears have seen better days - but other plants thrive in their place.

just show a little heart .... even on Halloween

The climb is on.

The Team at the summit.

The Black Helicopters have been keeping a watchful eye on us all day. Apparently, waterless fish and slime trails are not yet enough to shoo us off.

Scorpion and Pyramid trails actually join and make a loop trail but the distance is a bit too long for us. Wendy and Ella scampered right to the top of Scorpion - just to see how far away the junction really was.

Angry baby - hoping to star in the next Jason movie.

Happy Halloween!!!

Even the agaves are showing their angry side today. They take a strongly defensive posture every Halloween.

Masquerading as a bright big sun - and hoping to fool the heck out of you.

There ain't ever gettin' away from views of Cathedral.
