March 12 - West Fork Cold Spring

Parked by no shooting signs on Gibralter Road. Hiked down, connected to west fork cold spring then cut back off to take the trail to above the falls. Decent amount of water over the falls. Light pack day, 1.5L water in running vest. Ran out of water ~1 mile from the car on the way back.

Mar 18 - Rattlesnake to Tunnel

Rattlesnake trail to connector, then Tunnel trail to Gibralter road. Carried a 15lb pack and enough water this time. Trail snacks were ok, forgot to season the couscous and forgot to pack our sporks. Seeing the rattlesnake was very cool. It had a nice loud big beautiful rattle. I am curious what will hatch from the eggs in the cistern.

Mar 26 - Gibralter/Tangerine/Westfork "Loop"

Long hike today. ~19 pound pack, lots of snacks with no meals needing sporks. Dr. Kraker with cheddar and pepitas are lovely with peanut butter. Saw quite a few critters, including a gravid looking scorpion after dark that was way cool.
