A perfect, beautiful, cool day in Sierra Madre.  Just slightly overcast and not too hot coming down. Lots of water flowing with two opportunities to get your feet or hat wet to cool off.  We were meant to start at 6:00am but this gorgeous bear was at the trailhead.  My friend Russ took a pic. It quickly moved on to another area once it saw us.  Glorious flowers, greenery and sounds of water.  A few bugs towards the top but nothing crazy.

saw a few hikers but mostly an empty trail due to the day of the week.  Cosmic cafe was a great place to fuel up before heading back down.

proud to check this one off the list!  Would easily do it again!  15 miles, 4600ft gain in about 6 hours accounting for lunch and snack breaks.
