1st trip
Dan put together a great loop for the Harem (Dan, Carey, Christina, Yolanda) today on Sunrise Mountain in Peoria. We started from, what I'll call, Happy Valley Frontage Road, just north of Happy Valley and east of 92nd Ave. There's ample parking on the road and the trail access is signed at the end of the Cul-de-sac. We began our hike on Bat Cave trail to Saguaro Family Loop clockwise, Ridgeline east around the loop and back to Saguaro Family Loop west to Miner's Draw down to Miner's Ruin back to Bat Cave and Happy Valley. There were a few cars at the trailhead when we arrived at 8am and a different batch we when finished at 10:30. Fair amount of hikers on the top and 3 mountain bikers.
