August 16 Vista! We wonder if they forgot something
(continued) or dropped off a body and keep the
pistol loaded in the tent for the night
August 17 We're up to clear skies no beardworse,
and by ~0800h are on the Comfort Spring Trail which goes around upper Can
Canyon through a saddle at ~7300'el,
into Upper Ramsey Canyon. We go 2.25
miles to jet w/ Hamburg Trail at ~6700'el,
which we think might be the Hamburg
Mule site. Back to the car ~1130h just
time to miss a big storm that by the
time we're out of the canyon or good
news engulfed almost all of the Huachucas.
Got 20 Sceloporus jarrovii in upper
Can and Ramsey Canyons, no snakes,
and 3 big lion scads near each other
near the jet. w/ Hamburg Trail, Upper
Ramsey really is forested w/ thick
ground cover along the trail, lots of
conifers sounds of water, etc'. Spectacular
lichen on rock faces and the Huachuca
Agave is spectacular! Oak leaves
carpet the more open areas. Drive
north and then west to Sonora w/
spectacular views of storms over the
