"The Blog Almost Too Boring To Be The Most Boring Blog in America ... for Over 5 Years!"

until it got too many red cards from Wounded Duck and the Boredom Enforcement Committee ... now the tortoise's goal is to get to 10 red cards so he can get Big Dog to drive down and take a good long walk with the tortoise

P. S. This blog listens to its readers. We have the Benjamin Category Override for 5+ mile walks and now, it humbles Tortoise to say he has been named "Lou", by Doug Jr, in memory of Mr. Consistency himself, Lou Gehrig. Tortoise can hardly type the words to think he is in any way comparable to the noble Iron Horse. Thank you!

13-312


Walked half the access road to the Gould's Rim Trail, part of the Hurricane Cliffs Trail System after work today.  2.03 miles with 187 feet climbed, mostly on the return half of the walk, in 37:02 minutes.  Another picture postcard afternoon, sunny, calm, blue skies, and mid 60s, that we'd better enjoy while we can.  Tortoise rating:  4.1.

Cheerio!

North trailhead of the Gould's Rim Trail, reached by driving or walking 2.2 miles
 south from the Highway 59 north trailhead or 1.6 miles north from the Gould's
north trailhead.  No off-road parking area at this trailhead.

If you want to do the Hurricane Cliffs loop, you'll walk or mountain bike
this access road.  In 2.0 miles you reach highway 59, and in 0.2 more you
reach the Rim trailhead.

View looking east from the Gould's Rim north trailhead, near sundown

After about a half mile on the access road you begin
to see views of the Hurricane valley.



The access road then goes just behind the ridge with the block H
that overlooks the Hurricane Valley, for about a mile.


Retracing my steps, this is the view of the next 6 miles of hiking to the JEM trailhead
on the Gooseberry mesa where highway 59 first reaches it.

The power lines are a landmark that tells you the Goulds' Rim
 trailhead is only 0.1 mile further
