I feel like taking a different route back to camp, instead of returning the same way I came

I'm in fairly remote territory now; I haven't seen any human footprints for a while. I have almost two hours of daylight left. - I'm going to try walking over a ridge or two and descending one of the other washes in the area instead of the one I came up.

It occurs to me that I'm in fairly remote territory now, even though I'm probably no more than three miles from my tent. I haven't seen any human footprints for a while.

I have almost two hours of daylight left. It's almost 15h15 now and it will be dark at about 17h.
