And special bonus, I hiked it with my son Kevin.

For me, this was my 16th time at the top. But by examining the log on the top, there was one hiker who wrote that it was his 114th time, and someone else logged their age at 79 years old. That is phenomenal!

Anyway, this is the best time of the year to summit; monsoon season. Although the humidity may be a little high, the bonus is that it is lush and green, with lots of colorful flowers. And from the top, the desert below looks green too. Especially to the south and east.
