| no partners | | I took some out-of-town visitors on a nice, air conditioned hike (temps in the 40s).
We started at the new Adero Canyon Trailhead in Fountain Hills, and did a series of 5 trails in the FH McDowell Preserve.
After gaining a bit of elevation, it was nice to see how low the snow fell to the northeast, toward Four Peaks.
As expected, the trails were in great shape, making for easy travel.
The Fountain Hills portion of the McDowell Preserve, has some new trails constructed, plus some cross-cut connectors, to give hikers more choices and variety.
As mentioned, once we got moving, we had excellent temps to keep us 'air-conditioned'. |
