| All these colorful people are listening to Joe's story. He is telling the group (46) that his mother was here when she was 15 and seen the Civilian Conservation Corps. He says they most certainly noticed her. |

| Some of us also went to Beehive Overlook. These three hikers are really enjoying the view! |
 |
| No ice climbers today. Some of the ice fall has melted with the warmer weather. |
 |
| Sometimes there is an additional ice fall that forms under the East Overlook in Wildcat Canyon. Today it was just dripping. |
