Only from the north.
As long as the creek wasn't running excessively by Ellison ranch I've never had any issues from the south.

@BRichard
Don't know about current conditions, but even in the best of times I would be hesitant without 4WD.

@BRichard I'd settle for Honey Creek Divide. There are many hikes within a 10-15 minute drive of there, and best of all, there are numerous hiking options right from the campsite. When we camped there in June 2018 one of our hikes was to Reynolds Creek along Forest Road 3222. On another hike we wen...

Wearing gaiters as a DETERRENT? I seriously doubt rattlesnakes care whether someone is wearing one kind of gaiter over another, or even whether one is wearing gaiters at all...

@Alston_Neal
I agree... seems to me strike-proof is a great deal more important than strike-deterrent.

Got any ideas how I can? Time/Date: Check it against the calendar and known accurate clock. (Computer or phone is good) Quick check for location: At a known location, does your GPS show it correctly? (like your home... or favorite pub?) @DixieFlyer Nowadays, one may begin to wonder if flying is as ...

The date/time field for GPS systems was originally a 10-bit number denoting the number of WEEKS from the start, so... the GPS week started January 6, 1980 and it became zero for the first time midnight August 21, 1999. Since that was before many devices were in the hands of the public it was just a ...

Then click on Boulder Canyon Trail #103: [ photoset ]
Voila! There's your photoset.

The road is fairly easy walking and not much further than the shortcut but it is a road, I guess I would be interested in how easy is the short cut? Does it involve a lot of brush? It would save one mile of hiking, .9 mi vs 1.9 mi. At one time it was a road down to Tub Draw and based on the satelli...

@Sredfield
Not sure about following the river, especially with a backpack... while we followed it in April 2015, we very likely would not have been able to do it without getting wet when we were there last month.
I'd just follow FR406W.

@SAMBA
By all means, feel free to hike it as you would describe the hike, post the GPS route and hopefully you will have solved the issue to your satisfaction...

Drive another 1.3 miles west of City Creek trailhead and you'll find the Doll Baby trailhead is a better choice with plenty of room.
Not sure I'd want to leave a vehicle there for 2 weeks.
I'd recommend contacting the Tonto National Forest Payson District Office for more information: 928-474-7900

@Lori76
Digging around a bit I found this photo as well:

What route? #1. AZ 288 south to Board Tree Saddle then FR 203 down to AZ 288? #2. FR 54, south to FR 329 and connect to FR 203 just south of Board Tree Saddle? Having driven Option #2 you'll rack up 55 miles and 4300' AEG as you DESCEND from 5100' to 2300'. Plenty of fun, beauty, rough & rocky 'road...

This was the status on November 9, 2017:

switching from Mapsource to Basecamp fixed that problem I liked MapSource and stuck with it LONG after BaseCamp was available but with newer computers and operating systems I finally bit the bullet and started using BaseCamp. While I have used it for a few years now, there are more 'features' I hat...

Ok, so which is it, wit or wisdom... or none of the above?

Needed to occasionally empty the trash folder to keep it working. That is a possibility... if you delete files (windows) or send them to trash (Mac), unless you Empty Recycle/Trash bin, the space is not there for use. Which is why I always empty trash whenever I delete files from my GPS... and that...

I have a SUV that I couldn't get too much past FR 650 near Whitford Canyon Of the two Forest Roads to Roger's Trough, FR 172 & FR 650, the Forest Service only maintains FR 172.
