I let the Tucson native pick out a hike on Lemmon and it was a pretty good one.

The trail was in pretty good shape and although there were a lot of people out on Lemmon, there did not seem to be too many on this trail, especially after the first mile. The fall colors were very nice and a pleasant surprise as well. We did a partial out and back, however, a shuttle, or creative looping option with the campground at the end may have been more enjoyable. There were some deep pools and lightly flowing water near the Novio Spring area, however, it involved leaving the trail. We also came across a little trickling water and a nice pool during our quick detour to the plane wreck, which was not overly spectacular, but the setting was very scenic with some great fall colors going on.
