Camelback Mountain

(courtesy of Google)

Monday afternoon we went on a hike with a friend and conquered Camelback Mountain! It was quite the hike, and I may or may not be still sore from it.

It has been a while (too long) since I've been on a good strenuous hike(or any hike), it was sad/embarrassing to see that in my camelback (portable "water hose," not to be confused with the mountain now) I still had snacks and my permit tag from my
backpacking trip on Maui for my bio class (I was reallllly spoiled when I was a bio major).

Here are some pictures for your enjoyment. Please disregard that we look like a hot mess.
Our camera didn't do the hike quite justice, but getting to the top was definitely worth it, having a 360 degree view of the whole Phoenix valley.

Wolfgang enjoyed taking photo shoots with wildlife


"At the top and tired" look


A BEE stung me, on my HEAD! ouch.
