A stroll near Canyon Lake

Date: August 15, 2007
Location: Apache Trail, just west of Canyon Lake
Time and temperature: Start - 1730, 103
End - 1820, 102
Distance hiked: About a mile
Elevation change: Less than 50 feet
The numbers:
23 pictures taken

Ramblings: It was pretty muggy today, so I wasn't planning to go for a hike. A storm was building to the east, so I drove out that way thinking I might get some pictures of rain, flooded washes, or maybe even waterfalls. Ha ha. As soon as the cloud started to produce a light rain, it evaporated.


I stopped at some stock pens near the lake and started wandering around. The scenery was beautiful. It sure was muggy, though. The light rain raised the humidity without dropping the temperature much. There was only a light breeze, interspersed with long periods of dead calm.
