Location  Buckskin Mountain Trails Hike

Where:  Buckskin Mountain State Park, Arizona

 

 Ron & Bev Noble, friends from Salem, stopped by for a visit in route to their winter stay in Tucson. We all agreed to hike this morning and started off on the Lightning Bolt Trial shortly after eight o'clock.

We next took the Buckskin Trail and then the Abandoned Mines Trail where we inspected a number of the old abandoned mines.

Everyone still had an interest in more, so we took the Interruption Point Trail out to Interruption Point.

During our hike we got several quick glances of tiny lizards darting out of sight. I finally got a photo of one along the Interruption Point Trail, a Side-blotched Lizard. Click below on Additional Photo and look closely for the black blotch just behind the front leg.
