Not many photos this time folks. I was dodging a toxic plant called Poodle Dog Bush for the last few days and the camera didn't get much use.

Hiking on the Baden-Powell ridge above Wrightwood. |
|
Unusual flower or weed? |
|
Apparently not Baden-Powell |
|
My hiking partners for my 5 mile "nero day" out of Wrightwood. The guy in the background is 69! |
|
Almost to Canada!! Errr maybe not... |
|
Top of Mount Baden-Powell ahead, something like 9500 feet. |
|
The ridge I traversed, you can make out the trail. |
|
1,500 year old tree! | | |
|
|
|
|
400 miles! |
|
The dreaded Poodle Dog Bush. Entire hillsides were covered with this crap and it would grow over the trail. |
|
First day seeing the forest fire. |
|
Later that day it seemed to have started its own weather system. |
|
Second day seeing the fire, getting bigger and closer! |
Thats it apparently. Hopefully I'll remember to take more on this stretch coming up.
The flower is a poppy. Pretty!
