OK, I'm seeing a lot of people posting interest in Friday hikes...in addition to myself and a few buddies who also have Fridays off oftentimes. Let's give it a shot...who's in for a day hike on Friday the 31st? Post interest here, and places of interest.
I've been interested in checking off another chunk of the Highline Trail...I've done See Canyon TH to 260 TH, but want to do everything else west of See Canyon TH. Mostly, I think what would be ideal is somewhere within a couple of hours drive tops from Phoenix so the heat won't be totally unbearable (100 or less)

I'm pretty flexible, as long as it's cool. Kendrick would be fine with me

At least not you and me, right?! ;)

It looks like the Kendrick loop is hitting a nerve, I'll label it that. That's going to be 5-6 hours driving, so how early should we meet, 4/5am?

This will be one tough hike. 18-19 miles plus AEG approaching 6k in altitude... and to top it all off scarce sources of water along the way. be prepared... I'm bringing my new Golite umbrella... this way it won't rain
