Ghost Mountain via Blair Valley

Took a quick 1 night Trip to Blair Valley and decided to hike to Ghost Mountain.


I also wanted to test out my new 200 Watt Solar Panel System I just installed a few weeks ago.


We arrived at the trail head about 2pm and it was in the mid 80's.  There was a slight breeze that made it pretty nice.


It has been a few years since we visited the site last time and the Kids had a blast.


 The hike was a lot easier than I remember it

Haven't had a cholla bomb in awhile

We headed toward the pictograph trail head parking area

and found a nice campsite for the night 

There is always time for boulder scrambling

The Ocotillo in the area seem to take on human form

After a great night we hung out for a while and headed back home, around Little Blair back to S2
It was a great trip, my solar panels kept my batteries at 100% pretty much the entire time.
