| no partners | | Prescottstyle and I started hiking just before 9:00 a.m. Before we even crossed the road, I had to turn around: My shuttle driving wife couldn’t find the vehicle GPS I programmed for our pickup. The “missing” GPS was in our SUV’s back seat foot well. 
The first 1¼ miles has some decent shade, before crossing FR 9707V, and entering the old Indian Fire (2002) burn scar. The fire gods giveth and the fire gods taketh: The pine burned to stubs, but the manzanita are doing great! It’s shrubbery & views, instead of trees & shade. Good thing I liberally applied SPF 90 spray back at White Spar.
There is a new, undedicated, rest bench on Hill 6103’s northeast slope, at the 2¼ mile mark. It was actually chained down.
The pet cemetery I found next to the Wolverton Mountain gate eleven years ago [ photo ] is now almost indistinguishable.
From the gate, Trail #9415 begins descending. It ends after just over five miles at Trail #48. Left heads towards Copper Creek; Right towards my hopefully waiting wife. The final ¾ mile is the shadiest part of this Prescott Circle Trail segment. At the 5¼ mile mark, there is a pretty, small, fall that that unfortunately had no water.
My wife was indeed waiting! So, we drove back into town, to La Casa Prescottstyle, for the roasting of weenies, consuming of beer, and petting of dogs.
