I started this post last week and never sent it.
We'll be staying on at Cave Creek Canyon through July and hope things open up in August. While Arizona is experiencing a spike in Covid-19 cases, our little corner of the state is Covid free. Summer has settled in with day time highs in the upper 90's, in the shade. We had power outage for about an hour this afternoon, makes you appreciate Air-conditioning!
Joan and I joined a friend (Steve) on a hike to Barfoot Overlook. It's not a long trail, just 3/4 of a mile with 580 ft of elevation gain. Best 360 view in the Chiricahuas.
Unfortunately there's a lot of damage from the 2011 Horseshoe II fire. The fire also destroyed the fire cabin that once occupied the site.
Here's some pictures...

Here are a few more pics from the last several weeks...

The Coues Deer are very tame.
