Two Red Spotted Toads mating. Unsuspecting predators who ingest these amphibians get ill or die. Just another poisonous desert dweller!

Up the Deadhorse Trail for the first time. I enjoy hiking sola (Spanish for alone). The quiet, and going at my own pace for as far or as long as I want, is refreshing! I enjoy dilly dallying, taking photos, and seeing what’s over the next hill… it’s glorious!
