The past few weeks have seen warm temperatures and dry weather here in Northern Arizona. Yesterday that all changed with a visit from Old Man Winter. It has been snowing off and on since yesterday and heavier snows are expected this afternoon and tonight. I was down in Phoenix for the Mcdowell Meltdown race on Saturday. I rode in the marathon class which was a 55 mile course through the desert trails of Mcdowell. The weather was great and the trails were fast. I finished 17th but felt good and strong throughout. I snapped a couple of photos from camp Friday night. One photo is of the truck with the new campstove on the tailgate. I finally broke down and purchased a two burner stove instead of using the backpacking stove like the olden days. The other photo is of the entrance to Mcdowell and the mountains in the distance. Not a bad place to camp during the middle of winter.
