My friend John and I recently hiked the Algonquin trail in the Bradshaw mountains near Prescott, AZ. It started out as a rock hunting trip, but quickly became a wildflower photo trip as the photos that follow show. I was wearing my UT Kilts camo utility kilt. Though very comfortable for hiking, the brush along the really steep trail had thorns and also a nasty kind of weed with tiny burrs with hair-fine barbs that would even stick into the thick part of your fingers. Nonetheless, I kilted on. This is a strenuous hike; and the following Monday I hobbled around at work due to sore muscles. The trail was well marked with lots of mica sparkling the path and black tourmaline shooting through pegmatite outcrops along the way. Anyhow, here are the photos.....
