The Return

What should have been a 11 to 12 hour drive from San Diego to Base Camp turned into 14 plus hours because of this white stuff that fell on the road all the way from Cedar City to Ghost Rock just before I hit Green River. Coming down the west side of Hurrah Pass not far from Base Camp I rounded the corner and there was a mid size Mexican Spotted owl sitting in the middle of the trail. I kept the lights on him for 30 seconds or so and he/she didn't move. It wasn't until I opened the door of the truck that it flew about ten feet above the trail on a rock ledge and then set there staring at me.
