| no partners | | About a month late writing this triplog, ended up busy with work, school, and other things and kinda forget about it. Parked at the pull off at N 33° 18.025 W 111° 04.005 and headed up. I believe it was around 3pm when I started heading up. My plan was to find geocache GCJN6D since it had not been found since 2019. I followed a trail up instead of following the road specified in the overview as it looked like it was on Resolution Copper property and didn't want to get in trouble.
The trail was mostly easy to follow, as it was somewhat defined and had cairns along some spots. It had just rained and there were puddles of water and a stream. Saw some rock climbers while hiking to the geocache. I believe from the parking waypoint it was about a .75 mile hike to the cache. No clue what the AEG was as I deleted the gpx track. Made it to ground zero at 3:30ish where I found the cache hiding under a rock.
Would've liked to go up farther, however my parents like me home before sunset and I had a hour drive back to Scottsdale. So after admiring the area for a bit, I turned around and headed back down to my truck. I made it back to my truck around 3:55pm and headed home. A interesting area, saw some survey markers, lots of cool rocks, and a mine shaft vent. I'll have to explore more the next time I'm camping at Oak Flat. |
