Back to Bear Mountain

Got a late start to Bear Mountain. However the trail was not crowded and although it was hot, it got cooler as I got higher. Reached the summit and stayed a long while there. I took my time coming down. On the way down there was rain but I had my rain gear and it was not too heavy. I reached back to my car. This was a good way to resume the challenge as my most recent hike for the Arizona Summer had been back in July.
