Today after a leisurely morning I took off alone at 10:15 am for a solo hike that turned into an "epic", nearly 9 hours, about 9 miles, with a peak temperature of 95 degrees (but windy up top), all the way to Aladdins Lamp Pass, and even beyond. The houseboat stayed two nights in the same place in Wilson Creek.

I took so many pictures that I divided them into two halves. First, the morning and up to the Pass; later, the trip back down.
