Back at the Indian Bread Rocks BLM Rec Area

I guess I am a desert guy, happy with just medium sized bushes around me as opposed to surrounded by large tall trees.

I left the Chiricahua National Monument area this morning around 8:00 and by noon I was setting up camp at a new to me site in the Indian Bread BLM area. My usual preferred side was occupied so I decided to check out a couple of candidates, and I am glad I did.

It was a very windy day as I left Willcox, so I was glad that I decided to stop nearby at Indian Bread Rocks BLM Rec Area!

I found a wide site in a small warren of trails:

10x digital zoom of interesting rock

Altitude: 4068 ft.

Temperature high of 75°F, lovely.

I relax the rest of the day until about 4:00 in the afternoon when I went out for a short ride to see how full the camping area near here was. There were still three small sites and one large primo site available!

Here's some other rocks that were being painted by the afternoon sun:

Can you spot the rock climbing cows?

Here you go...

An update about the leak in Yagi's rear tire's inner tube. One still exists, however it is much slower now. I had pumped it up to 20 PSI before retiring for the evening yesterday; and it was at 10 PSI this morning.

I feel did that come to 20 PSI before I loaded it on to the front rack on the RV and preparation for today's move. When I got to Indian bread rocks it was at 15 PSI. So, she's quite rideable for now until I get her home. I'm not going to replace the inner tube on the road like I did the front tire, as the rear tire needs to be replaced as well.

This morning before things got too warm, I decided to try and hike up the rocks near the campsite to get a picture of the campsite from above.

Lots of brush with spines in it but otherwise no issues.
