This is a nice panorama of the Catalina mountains of Tucson as I descended the Douglas Springs trail on Saturday. Click on the panorama to see it full sized. You can see more of my hike here.
I took this panorama during my hike on Soldier Trail this morning. For more on my hike, visit here.
I love to go on hikes around and about Tucson, but back in June of 2012 I attempted to hike up Blacketts Ridge trail next to Sabino Canyon and couldn’t make it. This was such a disappointment, that I determined then and there that I just had to lose weight, get in shape and some day make it to the top. Well as I write this I have now lost 47 pounds and have not only made it to the top of that ridge, but I’ve gone on longer and harder hikes as well. But I’m still quite overweight, so I have much more to go.
I recently figured out how to make videos in Google Earth of my hikes, so I thought I would post them and let others see what the hikes around Tucson look like. My hope is this will encourage others to hike Tucson and get in shape as well.
These are posted to my new hiking blog: Tucson Hikes.
