| partners | | I had previously entered this hike on my HAZ "wish list" back in April'13, shortly after Oregon Hiker wrote-up this mostly off-trail hike which goes in from the Bull Canyon TH at the end of FR203A. I had been awaiting a good opportunity to plan this hike as a group hike to introduce others to another most interesting area of our Sierra Ancha Wilderness with 1950's uranium mining, old ranching history, as well as a very scenic, rugged upper section of Deep Creek Canyon to visit.
Mnlumberjack's winter escape (from MN) back to his second home here in Arizona along with an earlier discussion with Jack regarding us getting together again, prompted me to begin the initial planning back in early Jan'15 for this group hike. With six of us interested in going, it became more of a logistics issue for carpooling / driving and the need to select a satisfactory date all six of us were available..then there was the needed cooperation of Mother Nature in our AZ Winter month hiking at a altitude range of around 5000 feet. 
All the logistics and our needed cooperation with Mother Nature worked out well and from reading the others triplogs, I do believe we six had a rewarding and fun day.. I know I did! 
Jack- good to visit with you again and thanks for driving the required second vehicle;
Larry- a bonus having you, the author of this Upper Deep Creek hike & thanks for also driving;
Kelly- always enjoyable to have you join-in;
Tim- nice to have met your acquaintance back in mid-Dec'14 & thanks for joining us on this one;
Mike- nice to meet you and welcome to our amAZing state; |
