Hello, we are looking for a backpack trip this weekend. We can't leave until about 5pm on Friday and considering traffic, I figure we would leave Saturday morning. Any suggestions? I think it's still suppose to be pretty warm next weekend. We have done the cabin loop so was hoping for something diff...

@jdcollard We stopped to see if you needed any help. Also went on a walk about getting out of the ranch. :D Also smoked us on the trail coming out. I was the one with my nephew. He wasn't really feeling the hike out. (Neither was I) :sweat: I was gonna say that we were in the Green FJ with the Hike...

We were just there last weekend from the South...and probably met Kevin and didn't know it!! We found a few apples on the ground that we were able to bring home! To top off the wonderful trip...we ended up with a flat tire out there. Try changing that on the 'flat' road. Hubby was awesome! We have b...

We completed this trip last weekend. What a great area!!

This sounds excellent. I'm a bit hesitant about 'off-trail', but it sounds like it would be difficult getting lost, correct? I think I recall the area we are talking about here, where it dips down and a sign is there indicating Dane canyon. I'll have to read more thoroughly through the Dane loop des...

Okay - so something like up to the rim and up the Haught to Pinchot - then venture over to Dane and Barbershop canyons. I'll need to get a good map. Thoughts on campsites for 2 or 3 nights? Guessing up the Haught there are some fine spots? I'm sure there are plenty of obvious spots - but let me know...

I'm chiming in a little late here, but my wife and I are planning on doing this same trip. Parking at Washington Park and heading up top. We have previously done the East loop, which included Barbershop, Houston Brothers and U-Bar. This time we want to do the Western side. (Haught) I keep reading ab...

I also would highly recommend Reavis Ranch...we have done 2 trips out there in the fall. It is an out and back hike but there is water, solitude, and amazing views. Our first trip we dumped our packs and did a side hike to the ruins on the way in...camped overnight...2nd day did a hike to circleston...

I never met GPSJoe but had a wonderful backpacking trip on the Barbershop trails thanks to him. I think of him every time I drive by the exit. Hopefully something good will come out of the fire in the area.

We are heading up this weekend...was going to hike Mt Baldy...might have to check out Escudilla the other day.

We used the above link to find the upper falls this past weekend. I asked at the BCO and was told there is a 'social' trail that leads back to the upper falls. Once you know where to leave the main trail, it was easy for us to follow...We followed a trail all the way back to the falls and checked ou...

Sunrise has announced they are opening Friday Dec 9th...to the top of Sunrise Mountain.

Happy Birthday!

I have to agree...WMI is the first place we have been checking for information.

just got this email...

Reports that Wallow Fire has moved into Greer. All firefighters pulling out. Go to http://www.kfyi.com for the latest information.

edit: funny how I can't find any 'lastest information' on kfyi.com

Liz-we watched the meeting thru the link you provided. Thank you for that...our feed wasn't the best either but better than waiting. Prayers for your place...

We are in Pinetop and woke up to the smell of smoke in the air...

We are pulling into Show Low...very sad to see the sky.

Familiar with the ravens from a rafting trip on the Colorado. Absolutely incredible what those little devils can do.
