1136: South American Leopard Spotted very close to Arizona Town

Jaws and family assisted by Del, Lisa and extended family set the hash this week in a rarely used location out by Zikreet. Instead of turning right towards the hole in the wall area we went off the beaten track through some soft sand and dry sabka to get to a sandy lunar like lanscape near to Zikreet beach. There was some concern about parking on this soft sand but we did not lose any cars to the desert. We set off to the West around a long well marked first trail. The three false trails were all found and run by various suckers. The two remaining real trails were not as well marked as the first with small dots spaced very far apart. The ON-IN took ages to find as you could only see the cars if you were 8 feet tall.

Coach was first in, probably due to some inside information from a hare or two.

Dave Baker gave some unnecessarily complimentary comments. I was the spy, choosing to bucket Jaws for overtaking, Gump for no reason at all, Dave Baker for asking confusing questions about cars and Rocky for brutal bucketing the other week. Del started to laugh as he had managed to avoid the circle so he had to be dragged into the middle for his share of the slowly poured water.

The kids then ran off and got stuck on top of a Jebel.



ON ON until next week.
