Quick day trip to test out some gear in the sand dune just south of Echo Basin. On my way back to the car I did a loop around the outside of the bottom of Echo Basin itself, spotting a porcupine in the rocks at the east end. There were some yellow bells scattered about just to the west of the watering hole but no other flowers that I noticed. As always the basalt cliffs were impressive and the snow-free hiking makes visiting this area a delight year-round.
