Lloyd, Ben, Marilyn, Diane, Diane, and Marilyn joined me for a 10.6 mile hike in the Dixie Mine Area. We hiked out on Dixie Mine, visited the mine and the petroglyphs, then continued on Prospector, Bell Pass, and Windmill. When we got to Coachwhip, we turned right; that led us back to the Dixie Mine Trail for our return trip.
I noticed this mossy rock face on the way out…

Hate that I wasn’t able to join the Friday group in more hikes this winter but we had other commitments. Did a bike ride to Marcus Landslide with friends a few days ago and could not believe all the poppies. We’re leaving the area soon but look forward to your posts and excellent photos.

The clover, the lupine and the poppies are lovely in color, and the weeds around them help their beauty to shine. Thank you.
