| partners | | We needed something to escape the valley heat. Being at 6000-7000', it fit the bill for temps in the sweet spot.
Yeager Canyon #28 is a stead 1300' climb over 2.5 miles. The tread here, like most trails in Prescott, is impeccable. Nice views to PV also.
We did an off trail over to check out the barely moist, brown @Chums Spring. It's useless to most.
We continued off trail over to and down one of my favorites on this loop, Gaddes Canyon #110. Great tread and great views through the tall pines.
Burnt Canyon is off trail, but a pleasant off trail, with a light flow and pools. At the easternmost portion of this loop we jumped out of Burnt Canyon and steeply climbed up a use trail and down to the Ash Canyon Trail.
Ash Canyon Trail #539, is another pleasant walk until we went off trail up (sometimes steeply) to Kendall Peak. Great 360 views up top while we had lunch.
After a bit of a road walk, we finished off with the perfect grade of the Little Yeager Trail #533 |
