Reavis Falls Overlook - Brute Force Attack

Monday October 24th - Early
21mi / 4k
Ridiculous off-trail torture possible, hopefully not after more careful planning
I've rerouted and created a higher level of detail for the off-trail portion. If it's horrible there is the standard route out which will seem like a graceful extra 5.5mi

Can pickup along US60 Tempe(3:15am) to AJ(3:45am) if available, interested and capable
- might hit Circlestone on return if time permits

? - Why don't you just come in from the north and go around the falls on the left side and continue upstream and when you reach the Reavis hike back out on the north route?

@SuperstitionGuy I'm not a fan of the north approach. IMO from the north it's an "okay hike" from the south it's an "excellent hike". I've hiked the creek above the falls in the late 90s and am looking to tackle this different approach. May return by the creek depending on how it goes too.
@coanbru oh please, just did a Sat

@joe bartels Did I sense an aura of "There is no way in h**l, I'm going to let this hike beat me" syndrome?
I don't see your two fellow Bushwackers names up there yet. Are they still in recovery mode or do they just think that you are off your rocker?????

Yeah sort of considering we didn't even get a
chance to tackle the main objective. Still enjoyed Mound Mtn and learned more of the area so it's all good.
John did Mazzie Loop today and Father Dave was getting a second wind at the end of the Mound Mtn loop. I on the other hand am tired
@Patrick L You might consider posting an event that you would enjoy
