Story:
Summer's finally here and we decided to celebrate by doing a quick hike around Mummy Mountain.

We decided to save the new Mummy Mountain trail for another day and strolled around the ridge using the Ridge Trail first and came back using Mendoza.

Vetch is the most abundant flower right now. We also saw a lot of thistles, mostly in shady areas.

There were a few Chine Houses on the northern tip of the ridge, one Mariposa Lily on the west side, and poppies mostly on the south tip and at the entrance.

The girls had fun finding ladybugs.

Tips:
There is water and portable toilets at the trailhead (Mendoza entrance)
