I take a short walk to warm up and get used to today's surroundings (it was dark when I got here last night)

There's a small pool of water here and it looks like the water lasts a while. The plants here are softer than the tougher, drier plants I've seen elsewhere in this wash system so far.

I don't have a detailed topo map (or GPS) to check exactly where I am, and I haven't been paying very close attention to where I'm going.

One of the easy things about hiking a up a wash system like this is that the route back to the start is easy to figure out (just walk back down and follow any forks that head downward).
