Another map

I made an EveryTrail map of my recent hike in Bulldog Canyon. It confirms something I've suspected for a long time. The minimum altitude and maximum altitude say that I only climbed a little over 600 feet. Then why was I so tired? Well, when you look at the EveryTrail map, you can see that I climbed about 1300 feet and descended about 1300 feet. All those little ups and downs crossing washes really add up. That's why I try so hard to avoid them. And you thought I was just lazy.

They're called "PUDS", pointless ups and downs : )
