Temp started at 45, ended at 55. Patly to mostly cloudy. NW wind at 10mph.
Easy hike along dry, easy to see and traverse trails. Not much wildlife once I hit the trail. Driving to the parking area, I saw two "herds" of deer - each group had at least 15-20 deer per group! I also saw the largest porcupine ever slowly crossing the park road - unfortunately there was not enough light for a photo. I was surprised how many watering holes along the riverbed still had water in them, also saw water in the creek by the Dinosaur Tracks Viewing Area.
Hike was uneventful but peaceful!
