| no partners | | This was my first time doing this hike!. I can now add pk 3585 to my list of summits in the McDowells, and what a butt kicker!
You climb only a short ways, but it's steep and stickery; although the hike up to the mountain is quite a distance.
On top, you can really tell no one comes up here (no trash, poop bags, or anything!). You make your own way! Very rocky and lots of cactus to watch out for on this mountain. It's funny, when driving through Scottsdale, this mountain and it's sister (Pk 3804) look like gentle slopes. It's very steep and rocky when you get close to them! You can reach out and touch the other peak from the top of this one, but actually it's quite a hike I'm sure. Someday I'll tackle that one. It was very windy on top, but very clear, and I could see all mountain ranges in the valley very good. And the fountain was going off in FH, the wind was blowing it all over the place. Thanks Flying_Fliver for the route to follow!  |
