Weekend 2 day Trip

Post by Borknagar »

Around this time of year it's nice to go to some place with some water to go swimming. I live in phoenix and am looking for a relaxing 2 day backpacking trip within 2 hours driving distance.
Any suggestions would be great! Preferably with water, the heat doesn't really bother me a whole lot either.
Thanks

West Clear Creek....There's about 4 to 5 different Trails that will take you down there with swimming and fishing and camping spots at the bottom....

That's what I was going to say!
Understand, when you eat meat, that something did die. You have an obligation to value it - not just the sirloin but also all those wonderful tough little bits.
