The later hike on Saturday morning started at the Willow Springs Picnic Area. Ellie Watts contributed a couple of photos to the blog and Ed Matulis gives us the narration below:
We had 18 hikers
on Saturday's hike to La Madre Springs. We encountered 5 big horn
sheep, 3 burros and one coyote. We had a leisurely hike filled with
interpretive moments with numerous hikers participating in plant
identification. We had new hikers who treasured the slow pace and
learning. (A nineteenth hiker hearing about our intended pace abandoned
us at Best Buy. We saw this hiker on the way back. This hiker went all
the way to the mines above the cabin.) The rest of us made it to the
springs. We had a magnificent day as the weather was great as was the
camaraderie.
