On the PCT, in the Anza-Borrego desert, seeing two ocotillo beside the trail like gate posts reminded me of a famous quote of John Muir's. (Okay, I'm a nerd, I admit it.)
The quote, from a note Muir made in a margin, goes something like this:
Between every two pine trees is a door leading to a new way of life.
Could the same be said of two ocotillo on the PCT?
Hope so.
