And here I thought "I" was an avid hiker of the area. You all impress me and I am honored to have found this blog. Ellis, thank you deeply for recording what you have done. I have been hiking Sedona for 12 years now and have been doing exactly what your group does, but solo. I have since retired my desire to be a hiking guide in Sedona as the FS has gone in a different direction, but I will continue to hike everywhere and anywhere for the love of the land.
ReplyDeleteI recently hiked Lime Kiln without knowing the history...at least from the 525 side of the story. I have to hike the remainder to get that patch!
I'd love to keep track of your adventures so I will look every so often for updates of your adventures.
As always, be safe and keep active.
Gratitude and respect,
Bear
