Need 1 night Backpacking Suggestions!

Post by Trailbot »

I'll be visiting AZ next week and am looking for a good 1 night backpacking trip. I don't want to haul all my water so a place with reliable water availability at camp is key. I was looking at Hellsgate to Tonto creek or Reavis Ranch in the superstitions as options. Any thoughts or suggestions?
I'm having a tough time planning this without being from the area.

Do you think it's too early to make t-shirts?

Might be a hot item?

Would probably do well in a fire sale?

@skatchkins It’s never too early. I bet we could get a smokin’ deal on these.
