Tucson Az Run 4-20-08 Day 9

When we left Gates Pass we headed out for a run to the San Xavier Mission and Madera Canyon. For more info on the mission go to this link:http://www.sanxaviermission.org/ and for information on Madera Canyon, this link:http://www.friendsofmaderacanyon.org/ The pic above is where we parked when we got to the San Xavier Mission. You can see our bikes just about dead center in amongst the cars...REMEMBER: if ya want to see it bigger, click on the picture.

We left the Mission and headed for Madera Canyon. This is one of the signs telling you various info and warning you that this is bear country. The bear country info is on the tan paper between the two white pieces of paper
