I check out of Patagonia Lake and head back to Tucson. Just planning on passing through this time though, need to move on to Phoenix. I hadn't yet found a campsite there yet though, so I stopped at a rest area south of Tucson for lunch and to search for a site.
Couldn't find much, and nothing for 5 days straight. I wasn't really interested in moving sites once I got there, so I settled on a campground for the last three days. I'd stay at Picacho Peak State Park again for the next two nights, and take the time to make some repairs. I also had to pick up a new generator - Harbor Freight to the rescue. Stopped there and Costco to re-supply on the way out of town.
Arrived at Picacho late afternoon and set-up camp quickly. It was nice to have mobile phone coverage at my campsite again. Didn't have that since Kartchner, and that wasn't great coverage.
Climbed the peak again on day 66, got the new generator up and running, and 'made' a new bolt for the moto seat. Not sure how the old one got away.
Started with the one on the right, the left is the end product. Needed to cut it down, and extend the threads. The holes in the steps for the trailer made an excellent 'vice'.
One more sleep, then off to Phx.
