Headed out to Lucerne Valley early yesterday morning. Met up with some locals and headed up to Rattlesnake Canyon. All the shade spots had snow and the creek was running a little, in spots. I was solo in my need to run Mottino Wash, so my Son and I left the group to do MW. I was curious to find out how quickly I could get through the run. From Rattlesnake Canyon to the first turn off a the top of MW took a little less than thirty minutes. Sure beat the last MW run that I did, at about three and a half hours.
