Wind Cave Hike

Yesterday we went on our third hike, this time Wind Cave Trail in Usery Mountain Regional Park.
 This is at the start of the trail and you can see the Usery Mountain in the background.  It was sunny with temperatures in the low 70s, perfect for a hike.


 The trail crossing a dry streambed with the mountain in the background.


 A large Ocotillo Plant on the skyline.


We saw lots of pretty Sugaro Cactus and Barrel Cactus and Jumping Cholla Cactus, all visible in this picture.  Did you know the Sugaro Cactus don't start getting branches until they are 70 years old.


 Boulders and rocks strewn all about.


 A panoramic view from part way up the mountain at the end of the trail.


And this is wind cave.  Not very deep but very pretty.
