| no partners | | We decided we would take a few days and check out South East Arizona. First major stop was Safford, in the Mount Graham Study Area. After investigation, it looked like Ladybug Trail #329 would be a challenging but good hike. It came through on both accounts. Although I will say that the end of the hike really didn't have much to it as far as views are concerned, it's just an intersection of other hikes. I would recommend turning back at about 5.4 miles into the hike.
Its a lot of elevation gain, but I think the trail is engendered very well, it reminded me of the Barnhart trail in that the elevation gain doesn't seem to be nearly as much work as most hikes. Although it's still a 4,200' gain. so we were still exhausted by the time we were done.
In sections there were a lot of small flys, about 3x the size of knats and about 1/3 the size of a normal fly, they didn't bite but were constantly flying around your head.
If you are in the area, a good hike to get some good views. |
