Hike for a baby nap

Marcos de Niza trail after the explorer Marcos de Niza in South Mountains is half familiar to me. About two years ago, I took my friend there for hiking. She recalls it as a quick one. A mountain with a clear trail to the peak is inviting and for the same reason disappointing as it is short and you reach the peak fast. So to increase the challenge we went a little further and retraced. Now this part of it is only a recall that is being stuffed into memory may be for the first time.
This weekend, After the first two peaks we ventured further to be greeted by a hiker and debriefed. There was a small hill in front of us and another flat path around it. With a baby in the Bjorn, a fellow hiker warned us to go over the hill and not the flat path where an old lady died falling off. so it went, the frequent borrowing hand for support and at spots moving by sitting. whenever we stopped for vies, we amazed at the features on the landscape. a park A bridge. The sunlight at 2pm made the grey roofs in one community a white color and the brown remained the same or a tint red that made it seem like Greek homes except for the lack of blue and on a flat land. We could see pools. Reminded us of Jacuzzi which is interestingly a brand name says my husband.
When we came to the easy flat part, I thought I had the same energy as at the start. But once we were ready to go home, I started feeling all the aches. Hiking basics talks of a rhythm. It must be this rhythm that puts the baby to sleep while we hike.
