Jyoti has finally recovered enough from our Thomas Mountain expedition to try another backpack. So I picked an easy, predictable trip out to Eagle Rock near Warner Springs. We drove out around noon and stopped at Ramona Natural Foods for sandwiches. We got to the PCT trailhead at Barrel Springs and there were lots of cars including a couple that was hiking the nearly the same itinerary we were. After a quick check of the spring and finding it swarming with bees we headed out on the hike. The weather was great but the sun could be intense at times as we hiked along rolling hills. We quickly got to our camp at San Ysidro Creek. Unfortunately the creek was bone dry and there were a bunch of flies and gnats. Since we made good time, we headed out to Eagle Rock before sundown. The night was chilly and got down to the 40. We woke up early and hiked out before it got too hot. Jyoti had a good time.
