Today was our first attempt at doing a hike with the Hiking Club. Our hike was the Tortolito Mountains and we hiked the Wild Burro Trail plus the Alamo Trail which ended up being a 6.1 mile trek. There were a total of 20 people, of which we were the youngest. One man talked about hiking the north and south rims of the Grand Canyon when he was 71 - and he referred to that as being a long time ago.
It's almost funny how the "old guys" are so into their hiking gear. Everyone is fully outfitted with their hiking poles, appropriate hiking hats, and their Camelbaks. There was no wildlife to be found on this hike and Dave has yet to see a Javelina anywhere.
