Join Me on Hermit/Boucher Trail This Weekend?
Posted: Mar 02 2006 12:31 pm
I'm planning a day hike of the Hermit Trail this Sunday 3/05. Anybody interested in joining me? I will be driving up from Phoenix if you want to share the ride, too. Or just meet at the trailhead.
The plan is to hike Hermit to Boucher via Dripping Springs with planned turnaround at Yuma Point. Actual turnaround will be dictated by hiking time since I have not hiked Boucher before and can only estimate the time to Yuma Point. I am estimating this to be a 6-8 hour round trip.
I'm a moderate, not fast hiker. Reference times: Grandview to Horseshoe Mesa and back, 4.5 hours. Rim-to-rim (north to south direction) 11 hours.
