Outdoor Photo of the Week: Spiked Trails

For today's Outdoor Photo of the Week I figured we'd head down to Arizona.

This photo is from Lórien over at Wayfaring Stranger.

Here's what she said about the picture:

Spiked Trails: A picture of an area near Sierra Vista, AZ where the beginning of the infamous Geocaching "Smile" is.

Washington Weekly Update: Pac-10 Leaders

Five in a row. That's how many straight the Huskies have won over the UCLA Bruins in Seattle. That is also the number of current wins in a row the Huskies will have if they beat Arizona when they travel down to Tucson for a meeting with the Wildcats on Thursday night.

The Huskies just wrapped up a great week in hoops with an 86-75 victory over the boys from Westwood on Saturday (Women's swimming also took down UCLA on Saturday). Earlier in the week they slid by the Men of Troy 78-73 as well as retiring the jersey of the great Brandon Roy. Not too shabby I'd say.

Don't look now but these Dawgs are barking, especially after getting taken behind the woodshed by the Kansas Jayhawks in late November. Since that embarrassing defeat the Washington Huskies have gone 13-2, and the 2 defeats were by a combined 5 points (86-84 loss to the Florida Tebows and a 3 OT heart breaker to the Cal Bears).

This is a new week for the Huskies which I hope brings the same results of this past week....victory. Arizona and Arizona State are on the docket for this last week of January followed by a Northern California swing versus Cal and then Stanford.
