Trying Cholla up Camelback

A perfect day to hike with the temp hitting 70° by time we were at the top. I think I prefer hiking up Cholla Trail instead of Echo – lots of bouldering on Echo and pulling yourself up. I prefer the slow steady hike up Cholla, although we had to park almost a mile away because there is no parking at all at the trailhead. Bring lots of water, even in winter, it is the desert. We passed people going up with zero water!
