Today was our day to hike the Ubehebe Crater trail. We had been up there once before but never hiked the rim trail. The weather was perfect for a hike - temp in the low 50s with a light breeze. The trail was steep in places, especially at the beginning, but it was a good footing gravel surface. Its about 2 miles around and it took us about and hour and 45 minutes. Spectacular!
After the hike, we stopped at Stovepipe Wells and the Sand Dunes on the way back. We also checked out the Inn to see what renovations they had made this year. Wow!
We got back in time for a swim in the AWESOME warm swimming pool! The dinner reservation at 6:30 for an excellent and very expensive meal!
Tomorrow we head across the desert for Phoenix.
