Bar Canyon,Soledad Canyon- Organ Mountains

I heard a strange sound on the Bar Canyon trail. A few steps later I saw the water flowing across the trail amidst the fire blackened shrubbery. This area was in an extreme drought,which culminated in a fire in June. In July the rains came in a big way and didn't stop until September.The day I visited the normally very dry creek was running at least 1/2 mile distant from the waterfall at the trails end.
