Sounds and looks very interesting. How is the road to the trailhead?
I am very interested.

seems like there could easily be a half marathon option to this hike
one trip up and down with either pinal or signal peak would be a nice hike

I drive my 07 Honda Civic all they way to signal peak pretty often. I work up there a lot I can drive over to Pinal peak also. During the winter its a different ball game. We have to use a snow cat to get to our towers up there.
