Microclimate, White Canyon, Fry Canyon UT, April 22, 2011
Cactus in a hole
Clever cactus. Found a nice warm microclimate in a hole. Got a couple weeks head start on spring. Things might get a little tough later in the summer. Tradeoffs - it's all about tradeoffs.
Rain
It rained hard overnight. There is water in the crick. A couple feet of it. There won't be any exploratory hikes for a day or two. Ah well, I'm outa here - gotta go pick up my mail in Blanding.

Digging Your Toes
But living isn't really about location, it's about digging your toes into whatever soil you find under your feet and stepping forth with as much as a spring in your step as you can muster.
