The desert is a true treasure for him who seeks refuge from men and the evil of men.

The higher reaches of each of these ranges are called the "Sky Islands" and we were up on Mt. Graham in the Pinalenos - it is the highest of those "islands" and rises well above 10,000 ft. Our camp site was a rare mildly sloped and rather clear area amidst seriously steep and heavily wooded terrain. At one time it was a Boy Scout camping site. Zero improvements. We hauled in all of our needed water and our guy RoadRunner 65 towed two Porta Potties on a trailer up from Safford - thanks again, Joe. There is more than one road up, and the one paved route is indeed a driving challenge. If I dared trust those coming down the road, I would love to take the old Corvette over there and see how fast I could get to the top. Maybe some early Sunday AM. Some pulled up RV trailers as long as 21 ft. and another came up in a 700 series BMW. One nitwit went up in a 1970 GMC 3500 with a 1970 Alaskan pump up camper on it. A few folks simply endured the wicked climb and arrived with noticeable jitters - but soon leveled out and had a great time. NRA Member - Life, Benefactor, Patron

Here Paul CCCC, is welcoming everyone and remembering our friends that have passed on... Ken Howell, crossfireoops, thomasmagnum, mudhen, bigbuck215, I'm sure I'm forgetting someone, and those that couldn't make it this time. We pledge allegiance to our flag and say a prayer... and don't apologize for either... Kent

Kent's post reminds me that, in addition to our remembrances of members of the gang who have passed on ahead of us, we surely missed some "regulars" who normally grace the event but could not join in this time. It's always a great time, but even better with you all. No need to name - you know who you are. Those shots downhill toward the pond with folks and benches on the road show the shooting scene.
