| no partners | | Backpacked a short section of the East Divide trail #287 to link the High Creek trail #290 with the Rattlesnake trail # 285. Beautiful and easy 1.7 miles through unburned forest. This section of trail is well maintained at this point in time and could be called a highway.
A nice but dry camping spot will be found on trail at the saddle near the high point that is near the JCT of High Creek/Sunset Peak trails. You'll know your at this camp spot since it has an old trail registry box at it. The USGS 1971 shows a spring near the camp spot, we DIDN'T check it out.
As you near the JCT with the Rattlesnake trail you'll have great views of the interior of the Galiuro's and distant views of the Rincons, Catalina's, Whetstone's and the Santa Rita's. The JCT with the Rattlesnake trail is signed and the GPS we had was a little off to its location. |
