In a world of so many great photographers and writers, I am venturing into some unknown territories, leaving comfort zones, finally very willing to practice the art of seeing. By maintaining the practice of posting daily photos, I hope to continue learning about the possibilities that I trust are out there for the taking.
The wind died down, the temperature was in the high 70′s, there were 8 of us on Saturday’s hike and we all agree that this 7 mile section of the PCT from the PCT trailhead just north of the I-10 freeway that goes through Gold and Teusong Canyons before reaching the Whitewater River Canyon is the MHCC Hiking Group’s #1 favorite hike during the peak wildflower season (or anytime really.).
To see more of the 40 hiking photos I uploaded, click here.
We probably missed the first peak wildflower bloom for many flowers by about 2 – 4 days, but we still had a great display.
In Teusong Canyon, taking a break at about 4.5 miles.
We did hit the peak on the poppy bloom however! We weren’t disappointed.
I should have posted this photo in the photo assignment “Orange” folder in my Photomotivation class (that is ending soon, but starting up again April 1st if anyone is interested.)
Hit it right for the poppies!
I love the flower growing out of a rock, so amazing!
