| partners | | We had the rare opportunity to drive across the dry Verde River and cutoff some extra miles of hiking for an already long day. Joe and Ken invited me to come along with Club Cabin as the objective for the day. Out and back hike to Club Cabin but really decent trail most of the way for the Mazzies. We followed the Davenport Trail all the way passing Sheep Junction and then the last section up to the Club Cabin.
We looked around the cabin site for a few minutes checking out the really nice spring area just above the Cabin. Lush greenery abounds and water flows into several small pools perfect to quench your thirst if short on water. Ken suggested we check things out above the Cabin which we did trying to find the almost non-existent trail. We went another 3/4 mile above the Club passing small pools of water in Red Rock Spring before turning back and was able to follow the old trail back. Much of the trail in this section is overgrown or washed out so definitely helps to have a GPS route above Club Cabin.
After messing around looking for trail we headed back to Club Cabin and had lunch. Took our time on the lunch break, enjoyed a brew, and spent some more time relaxing before the long hike out.
We kept a quick pace on the hike out...even a little warm for January. Made it to the vehicle little after dark. Great day...I'm sure will be back. So much to see in this area  |
