mount graham has been on all of our wish lists for years
this trip was a reschedule from june
given the recent heat wave, temps were fine and it was a nice break
drove up to soldier creek and set up camp
bruce successfully dodged a horse on the rez and a bear on the swift trail on the way
parked off high peak road and headed up
a road walk the entire hike except for the summit
good views of heliograph peak and the surrounding area, in part due to a significant burn from the frye fire
spent a few minutes at the summit, headed back down and returned to camp
we all thought there would be more people up on the mountain, but only one other party in soldier creek campground
nice to have a fire
temps dropped to maybe 50 at 9400 feet
no red squirrels were harmed
