Still on Pinyon Flats Trail

Even the old guys lean way over on the corner

Approaching the switchbacks that will drop us into Palm Canyon

On the edge...

Which way are we supposed to be going???
|
|
|
At the bottom of the switchbacks there was an immediate climb over a little ridge

Brett is sweeping and is last down the switchbacks

Oops, misjudged that one!
