| no partners | | I led a group of nine on a loop starting from the end of Golden Eagle Blvd in Fountain Hills. We hiked Dixie Mine, Coachwhip, Windmill, Bell Pass, Prospector, then down the service road and back on Dixie Mine. Along the way, we took two brief side trips, one to take a look at a water catchment and the other to look at the mine and the petroglyphs. (One person in our group hadn't seen the petrogylphs yet.)
As usual, the trails in this area were in excellent condition and were very easy to follow.
We saw a number of other hikers and also mountain bikers on our hike. We saw a gopher snake on our way back from the catchment. |
