| partners | | After meeting John at Butcher Hook in Tonto Basin, we began our long anticipated drive over Forest Road 609 (Malicious Gap Road) to Young. First stop: Picture Mountain. This was John's first and my second trip to the summit. I went to place a register on the summit, but the Southern Arizona Hiking Club had beat me to it last year (they put one on the roof of my house, too). We had lunch on the viewpoint rocks on the south side of the summit, and called a friend in Phoenix to torment him with our beautiful location. Hiking down, we came across quite a few pottery sherds in a new location, which made me wonder if there was a second ruin buried in the brush above Red Rock Spring. It was great to return to ol' Picture Mountain! |
