I finally got myself out for a hike. I’ve been a little tentative, not wanting to get caught in a monsoon, but today I decided I was going to give it a go. I drove to the Painted Hill Trailhead, just a 10 minute drive from the house, and hiked for about 1.5 hours by combining the mosaic, monsoon, and slingshot trails. It was a well-marked trail with great views. I met one other woman coming off as I was starting, but that was it.
