I chose an early morning hike leaving just after 6 am. Hiking in via the Floral Trail I expected to hear the rustling of leaves from nocturnal creatures. I was sad to hear nothing. The sun was still a half out from cresting Hot Springs Mountain and it was still dark in several places on North Mountain. I was blessed with 2 sunrises this morning it was glorious.
