Route recorded on Route Scout | Pop | Map | Popup | MapDEX

I decided to do a lasso loop that went down the Grandview Trail to Horseshoe Mesa, and then did a CW loop down to the Tonto Trail and back up to the mesa.

I started the hike at sunrise and the temps were in the low 30's. I wore microspikes for the first 2 miles, and I was glad that I had them.

I have done this hike 2-3 times before, and I always enjoy it. I did not see anyone else until about 1.5 miles from the TH on the way back up. It was really quiet down in the canyon.

There is great scenery on this hike, and it is nice to get away from the crowds on the corridor trails.

Route Scout seems a little overzealous in the AEG figure, so I will take a look at it when I get back home. I was expecting around 4,100 feet of gain. EDIT: I lopped off 400 from the AEG that RouteScout recorded, which seems like a more accurate figure
