Mescal Creek is a side creek to Cienega Creek. It looked interesting so I headed up this creek for two miles before turning around. Not really interesting, just a large sandy wash. The entire creek is 9.5 miles long and will have to finish up the rest at another time. At the end of Mescal wash is the western town of Mescal, the film location for Young Riders. You can't drive into the Mescal western town (private property of Old Tucson Studios) but maybe I can accidentally walk in while hiking.

I bought a new pair of boots and I have been breaking them in on these short hikes. The sandy wash is not the place to break in boots.
