In my annual sabbatical into the Arizona desert around Quartzsite Bailey and Chloe join me for eight days living "off the grid".
One day Bailey and Chloe joined me up Quartzsite Hill where this new American flag waved. In the background was a tough son-of-a-gun mountain to climb. But the next day we set off to climb it.
Picture from near the top of this tall mountain the next day. There was NO trail up this mountain and I know why. No one in their right mind would climb it.
This Mountain is 90% loose, sharp, and hard stone. It was a tough climb over this loose, sharp rock for both the dogs and me. Behind Bailey's head, off in the distance, is Quartzsite Hill where the flag waved. The hill looked like a pimple from this mountain looking down.
What you see in the above picture is the closest thing there was to a trail back down the mountain. I must admit I was nervous as taking a wrong way down was not a healthy option. I was sure out of my comfort zone.
