My Actifit Report Card: July 30 2023

A day out hiking and taking in the beautiful red rock scenery around Sedona, Arizona with my little Lulu. The town itself was crowded with thousands of tourists but the hills just outside of town were tranquil and quiet.

Since the forecast was for the 90s even in Sedona we left very early and arrived at the trailhead under bright skies but moderate temperatures.


My trail guide to our hike route listed it as EASY which was one of the reasons for heading out here and the natural beauty was fantastic with the reddish sandstone bluffs and hills looming all around us. I packed 3 liters of water along with treats in my backpack and off we went up the steady but not especially tough ascent.


After the climb up to the high point of this out and back route (just a bit over a half mile and about 250 twisting and turning elevation gain it wad time to let Lulu rest a bit and get some nice cold water for her efforts.

Lots of dry dirt and rocky outcrops on our hike but neither of us had any problems even though Lulu was reallymoving along and I had to watch my step on the slippery gravel-covered rock slabs.

We passed only a couple of other hikers along the way but there were plenty of birds and lizards to amuse us.
Lulu had a great sense to where the path was going even though I had to keep checking my GPS to make sure we stayed on the right path to our turn point and snack break.



It was nice to sit down among the rock bluffs and enjoy the natural splendor while resting a bit and making sure we had plenty to drink before retracing our steps back to the trailhead

So ended my weekend and hopefully we'll get out into the wilderness more often as the summertime heat begins to wane.
