Day 13 Wednesday January 27 2010 First Night in the Superstition Mountains


Three-mile hike to Boulder Canyon beneath Battleship Mountain.
The Desert speaks a different language than the Canyon.
Softer, subtler, yet more familiar.
Sun, cactus, spines everywhere, scattered thunderstorms and green, green, green rocks through streams, over creeks, mud, and bamboo.
Now, we sit around purple flames discussing the Wilderness.

“The greatest beauty
is organic wholeness,
the wholeness of life and things,
the divine beauty of the universe.
Love that, not man apart from that…”
      Robin Jeffers
