After introducing a visitor to Spur Cross area [ triplog ] we had lunch at Big Earl's in Cave Creek. Over lunch we chatted about my Jeep TJ offroad so I suggested we take a drive up Black Mountain fro a short demo. Hey it's not tough but it is a decent climb, especially with washouts from recent rains. Drove up almost to end of rocky road, then we decided to hike up to peak. Nice afternoon.

Forgot to turn on HAZ until halfway up so had to clone a lower section.
