just enough time for a quick jaunt

Quick hike/quick post: On Sunday, before heading north (stupid jobs getting in the way of being in the desert), we went up to Sand Flats Recreation Area for a quick jaunt out on the Slickrock trail.  We didn't have time to do the whole Slickrock trail but managed to be out for a while, climbing up and down the sandstone swells and traipsing through the sandy patches.  There were several jeeps and side-by-sides out there right from the start, and a couple of small groups of dirtbikers; we didn't start to see too many MTBers until after 10:30 a.m. when it had warmed up a bit.

Yet another view of the LaSals from the redrock

With the warm temperatures, the snow is melting from the LaSals.  It's difficult to complain about that (although we need the snow for the water) because 60s and sunny in November is just delightful.
