Happy December! 12.1.22~Fortress Butte, Hot Springs Canyon, AZ w/ hiking bestie Laszlo. 4.7 miles, +/- 1,200’ gain. Out and back the HS canyon dry falls/petroglyph route My 4th visit to this peak and it never gets old. Always exciting views ta die fer of the scenic Colorado river and the colorful surrounding Black Canyon Mtns. I love meandering along the rim of its Football Field sized summit. Many hardy Barrel cacti reside atop.
