Water tower at the top of the first small hill. |
| The first of many long climbs. |  |
 |
Ed waited for me to get ahead so I could take this picture of him climbing the hill. |
| What goes up must come down. This is the other side of the hill. |  |
 |
This trail we were following is a jeep trail. Easy walking. |

Just another view of the trail after we cross the stream bed. |

Cedar and rocks make up this walk. |
| This is the creek bed, not our trail. |  |

Another grassy section. |
| We had completed 1/2 the journey. Now we get to turn around and get back to our car. |  |
 |
Re-crossing the same creeks. |
| I think it was prettier going the other way. |  |
 |
Creek bed. |
| Just a little hill. |  |
 |
More lava rock. |
