It was one of those great desert hikes that rose from cactus strewn flatland up through a green rugged slot canyon. The focus of the hike was a side canyon filled with palm trees. It is always amazing to see them in the desert. They seem to be able to find just the right spot even here. Pretty amazing. There were supposed to be lots of big horn sheep. We saw none…a bit of a bummer. Overall though a fun walk.
