| no partners | | Our 4th short hike of the day on Mt. Graham. We started from the Ash Creek Trailhead and just went straight up Webb Peak #345 and back. Our first real climbing of the day, and it felt good. Mostly a gentle climb with a few lightly steep sections. There were a lot of aspens on this trail and most of them were at their peak. The best fall foliage of the day. We saw a couple deer when we hit the big aspen grove.
A storm seemed to be forming, and it rained on us for a short time when we got to the peak. The threat of a thunderstorm coupled with my fear of heights/falling made me chicken out on climbing the lookout tower. Maybe next time. Even without climbing the lookout tower this is still the highest peak I've ever hit. Cool to know I was at 10,000+ ft.
The storm never hit and we had a nice hike back down to the trailhead. Nice trail, and a fairly easy 10,000+ ft peak bag. |
