Dove Mountain and Rainy Day

Image by kenne

cold is the sky

among close friends

inspire with awe

yet cast in doubt

at the new do

looks like a crown

tower of strength

high in the sky

a crest of thorns

part of a hat

On the 7th of January the Monday Morning Milers hiked the Alamo Springs Trail, returning on the Wild Burro Trail near the Ritz-Carlton Dove Mountain in the Tortolita Mountains. The Golf Club at Dove Mountain is host to the  Accenture Match Play Championship this February. The view I prefer of the golf course is from the Alamo Springs Trail.

This Friday I will again be hiking Alamo Springs, assisting in the weekly Sabino Canyon Volunteer Naturalists hikes.
