Yaqui Trail


Hey, Cheeto Mussolini: My friend Ira and I took a hike down to the Mexican border today, crossed through the gaping hole in the barbed wire fence, and had a leisurely lunch in Mexico, fuck you very much. Good luck building a wall in that neck of the woods you insane clown nitwit. Clouds quickly gave way to sunny skies thanks to the 40-60 mph winds whipping across the ridge and all the way down the Yaqui Trail to the border. 55º and sun made it tolerable. 7.1 miles round trip at around 2.9 mph, with about 2,000 feet of elevation gain. Good little workout which made the illegal Mexican lunch (PB and tart cherry jam sammy) even more delicious.

Beautiful Mexico. I could live there.
