Why drive when you can hike? by Davis2001r6 ![]() The road is clear from the parking area and has a nice steady grade on the way up. The average grade is 13%, so it's enough to get your heart beating, not to make you want to turn around. There is plenty of cactus and nice views along the way. To the South, you have a great view of Baboquivari Peak.
Once near the top, you'll hit the main road. Just head a couple hundred yards up and another short scramble, and you'll be on top. The hike was shielded nicely from the wind, but it wasn't up top. There is a small antenna up and a peak register in a can. Overall it's a nice little hike that still gets you 3k' feet of gain with relative ease, as you are just walking a dirt road. There is no water anywhere on the hike so bring your own. Check out the Official Route and Triplogs. Leave No Trace and +Add a Triplog after your hike to support this local community. |
