March 30

Mar 30. 4:25 am is none too early to answer nature's call when the Milky Way is turned on.
We're not in a big hurry to put on the miles--we're just lucky to tolerate rising at 5:00 a.m. to break camp and start hiking before 6. For all four full days on the trail I've taken 1-4 hour siestas during the heat of the day, before resuming the walk.
The beavertail cacti has started to bloom in line with all the other wildflowers in the Anza Borrego Desert.
A long hike toward a camp overlooking hwy 78 (to Julian). I stopped on the trail and asked A to check our location. We were right at the camp. High winds blew over us off/on thru the night. Cowboy camp.
