| partners | | Our first trip to the Chiricahuas, and everything written about them is true. What a fantastic place! It's hard not to take a picture of every hoodoo you look at. "Ooh, look at that one!, Ooh look at this one!" You'll hear and say that a lot in this area.
We started at Massai Point, went to the Echo Canyon trailhead - .5 miles Down Echo Canyon, played around in the Grottos, then to junction of Upper Rhyolite/Hailstone trails - 1.6 miles Upper Rhyolite up to the Sarah Deming trail - 1.1 miles Sarah Deming up to Big Balanced Rock -1.6 miles Big Balanced Rock to junction of Inspiration Point trail - 1.0 miles Inspiration Point trail down Mushroom Rock trail to Ed Riggs trail - 1.2 miles Ed Riggs back to Massai Point - 1.0 miles. Total 8 miles, but lots of down the canyon, back up the canyon, down the next canyon, back up the canyon. Nothing too strenuous, but enough to get a good exercise in!
Due to lack of time (and energy) we skipped the Heart (the best part?), and Inspiration point. Those will wait till next time, which won't be very long! |
