Notes:
I heard this racer at the side of the trail and followed him to a cactus area where he hid and stared at me...I couldn't go in and catch him because there was a bee hive and there were bees everywhere. He knew he'd be safe surrounded by cactus and bees. Then, after I hiked down the trail for a while, when I walked back, I saw him cross the trail right in front of me...
