| partners | | It's hip to be square. John that is.
Linda organized a Pinal hike that looked challenging, hitting the better parts of the Pinals. John10s and I (John squared) joined Linda after a few other invitees couldn't make it.
We started up Sixshooter from the bridge parking spot. It's a climb to the top. We stopped by Ferndell Spring on the way. Not much happening there anymore, I think they rerouted the flow. Next, we climbed up the ladder rock. Windy and cold up there. Not quite as bad on Pinal Peak, and comfortable on Signal Peak once we made our way over there. We then descended Icehouse to the intersection with Telephone, where we started back up to meet Sixshooter again. I had not been on Telephone in quite a few years. Good piece of trail so to speak.
Once we connected back up with Sixshooter it was mostly downhill the rest of the way.
We saw 10 mountain bikers and no other hikers. Quiet for a Saturday.
Great hike and company! Thanks for driving Linda.  |
