It was good to chat to the family last night and catch up on their news. We slept well and were up early to eat a good breakfast before getting an uber ride, first to pick up Gary, and then on\u00a0 to the trailhead where we had left the trail 2 days ago. It was interesting to chat to our driver who had been a deputy sheriff for 13 years until he was medically retired because of injuries incurred on the job. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back on the path and, at first it was a well graded and relatively easy hike into Sabino Canyon where we had a leisurely lunch under a shady tree beside a creek. In the afternoon the trail climbed steadily at first but then became very steep, winding between granite boulders up to a ridge top where we had spectacular views over the impressive mountains that surround us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We set up camp as the sun was setting so it was a race to fetch and filter water, and cook and eat dinner, and get into our sleeping bags before the real chill of the night set in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
