Overview: Is it a trail...or is it a road? This is supposed to be a closed road converted to a portion of the Prescott Circle Trail. It looks like it has not been converted yet. This trail climbs from White Spar Road to loop around the summit of White Spar Mountain, AKA Quartz Mountain. The peak is made of almost pure white quartz. You can also continue on Trail 9415 which ends at the Trail 48 trailhead on Copper Basin Rd. There is also a short unmarked trail to the summit.
When hiking several trails on a single "hike", log it with a generic name that describes the hike. Then link the trails traveled, check out the example.
WARNING! Hiking and outdoor related sports can be dangerous. Be responsible and prepare for the trip. Study the area you are entering and plan accordingly. Dress for the current and unexpected weather changes. Take plenty of water. Never go alone. Make an itinerary with your plan(s), route(s), destination(s) and expected return time. Give your itinerary to trusted family and/or friends.
Only trailheads with six "amenities" have fees. Amenities are picnic tables, trash, toilet, parking, interpretive signing and security.
