Haunted Canyon HAZoween Hike

Post by JuanJaimeiii »

This hike will be into Haunted Canyon with the destination of the camp spot near Tony Cabin. Start time is 9:00AM at the Haunted Canyon Trailhead. It will be a Spooktacular event and Costumes are HIGHLY encouraged. Once there we can enjoy the area for awhile, eat lunch and hunt for "The Cave of a Thousand Eyes". Round Trip is a little under 12 miles and around 1600 feet of AEG.

This is a Wilderness so group size must be capped at 15.

There will be one spot that has washed out a little you may have to creep over but it should be fine I saw a mini van out there last time

when y'all return back towards the t/h, stay in canyon bottom where the trail goes upwards onto the hillside.. there is an interesting narrow and pools of water (might require a wade/swim) but it is worth a look. come to think of it, might the weather lean towards the warm side, that swimming hole might be a nice payoff. have fun!

Some plan on staying and camping. I will be returning to Phoenix the same day and certainly before 7pm. Well I guess it depends on how long it take me to eat at Los Hermanos. :D

Costumes are HIGHLY encouraged.
