Above Idyllwild


Above Idyllwild, originally uploaded by timophoto.

This was my turnaround point, at Saddle Junction, last Sunday when I hiked Devil's Slide out of Idyllwild. The last snow is melting just behind me on an unknown peak. Idyllwild is just below, in the lower-right corner of the frame. From where I am standing, I can see Mt. San Jacinto Peak, just another five miles or so on foot. Below me is a valley which reaches about 2,000 feet down! Very beautiful up here. I was able to recharge the batteries, despite the nasty blisters on my heels.
