Back for my second attempt at the “Savage Mountain” as Dave and Sharon call it, we decided that an early morning start was warranted for Mt. Humphrey’s (12,633 ft.) Once again the weather reports promised crappy weather by late morning. We never changed our clocks over to Arizona time so we really weren’t sure what time we headed out but I think we were at the trailhead by 6:30am (or was it 5:30am?) As promised, the weather rolled in and it started to snow on the summit just as we got there. No time for a “group” shot on the summit, we each snapped a couple pictures of each other and bailed down the trail. We hiked down in rain most of the way and soon found out how waterproof our clothes really were (or were not!) Obviously snowshoes were overkill on this trip but better safe than sorry.

On the way to Kanab, UT we were able to see the beautiful Vermillion Cliffs area. Then an overnight stay in Kanab and home we went. Just enough time to wash a few clothes, sleep in for one morning, and off to NY and ME for my next business trip.
