| Vulture Peak and hike to the saddle |

| Vulture Peak Trailhead Camp |
After our Border adventure we decided to move north for a while and check out some places around Wickenburg. We camped for several nights off the Vulture Mine Road at the Vulture Peak Trailhead where we hiked to the saddle and sat out another wind storm. We then spent another day visiting the Los Cabelleros Museum and seeing lots of Western art including original paintings by Remington, Russell and Moran and also many of their bronze works. What a great little museum and we really liked the small town. We also went a little south to the Hassayampa River Preserve where the underground river is above ground just for a short time and this Nature Conservancy protected area is home to some huge willows and cottonwoods, a spring fed pond, palms, and several hundred birds. It was nice to be in an area that is so green after all our desert hiking.
