Wild Burro Canyon In The Tortolita Mountains   1 comment

Wild Burro Canyon In The Tortolita Mountains (March 12, 2012) — Panorama Created By Merging Three Photos By kenne

These mountains were home to the Hohokam (550 to 1540 A.D.) as evidenced by the amazing petroglyphs carved into rocks throughout the range. We also know that Spanish explorers sought mineral riches for their crown in the 1540s, and there was a short-lived mining boom in the 1860s.

I will see you at the rock,

the rock at the pass —

not till you are lost,

then you will find me

by the river 

sitting on the rock.

You starting point will be

the mystery of my loneliness.

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.
