| no partners | | This is a not-so-hidden gem! You'll see the lookout structure as you come up to Rose Peak, right next to the Coronado Trail (US 191 south of Hannagan Meadow). With just a half-mile hike, just off the road, why not?
Zeyn, the lookout, said I was the fourth person up this season. Why is this not more popular? I had talked to Zeyn for over an hour when I finally noticed the time - I needed to get back home eventually, and I knew it was two hours to Safford from here. I reluctantly told Zeyn I had to go - and I made my way back home.
I hiked the trail up (.5 to .7 miles, depending on who you listen to) and the road back (1 mile).
The lookout here will only be manned until July 8 - so get there while you can. Or try again next year - I know I will...
Oh, I should mention - this is a fairly new 14x14 cab. Big enough to be a live-in, but since the one it replaced had the living quarters down below, this structure was not equipped to be a live-in. |
